Sounds like your arrow was deflected. I would suggest not to take the shot in the future if it is to dark. There are many crucial decisions with bowhunting vs. gun. Good luck / shoot smart.

Ditto Martin.8.You owe it to the animal you hunt to only take ethical shots.You learned a valuable lesson,if it's to dark to see where your arrow went it's to dark to be shooting at the animal.Take heart you learned this lesson without wounding and loosing an animal and may still harvest him at a latter date
