Long Range Elk

This statement bothers me just about as much as the original video of this thread. It wasn't a very good shot if you lost the animal now was it?

I killed my mule deer last year with a double lung pass through shot, but because it was high, there was very little blood trail. I was genuinely concerned I wouldn't find him. With a high kill shot, the blood fills the lung cavity rather than spilling onto the ground. Not recovering an animal with a double lung shot is not an impossibility. This is why aiming for the lower third of the kill zone is solid advice.
