My friend hit a big buck in the hip last year , we trialed it for prolly 300 yards with excellent blood , then all of a sudden , nothing . I dunno what happened , someone saw the buck cross a field into that thicket about 100 yards past that , and that buck had a hard hit right into the hip , burried into the fletching from about 20 yards , and he never found the buck , searched for 3 days and nothing never was seen or heard from again!
