All yall saying the rifle hunters wound too many haven't been on a bow hunters page that allows tracking dog requests....
Check out a fb page, pa deer hunters, our archers are always looking for a dog to find a critter.
Id take a keen hand, a long shot, and a good rifle over a crossbow at 40 yds...

This is fact. I'm on a page for Northern KY sportsman and it seems there's been at least one post about a tracking dog everyday since bow season opened in Kentucky.

Doesn't matter what tech he used, any "normal" hunter, that doesn't practice on a regular basis out at that range, isn't going to pull that shot off. I think it was/is prudent to use tech at that range to "insure" a clean death on the animal vs guessing and wounding one. Again, practicing at that range is key, tech frees up the guessing and a nonlethal shot happening...

Sounds like hunting with a side of luck to me.
