AT this point wouldn't a head shot be more prudent? Hit or miss it's over without wounding.
Well, you could definitely miss and wound with this shot, especially if you are shooting through antlers, but you make a good point.

Nobody commented on it, but if you are going to take this iffy shot, why not shoot at the largest organ in the body - liver. Hit it in the liver and it is going to die, right?

IMO, only double lungs should be shot at though. Nothing else.

NO. I wouldn't attempt this shot with an arrow. However, sounds like the setup for a spear though.
