I'm sure you are well aware, but had you been trying for the shoulder shot instead, you would have cleanly missed at best. Nice work.
That's really what it comes down to though. Lungs are huge, offering the shooter plenty of forgiveness. Is the 20-40 yard run really a problem worth risking a shot on an apple size target? Sure, once in a blue moon you get a fast one that can make it 100 yards, maybe a bit more. Over the years I'm finding the tracking is pretty easy. Maybe not having to drag them the 40 yards back out of the swamp would be nice, but it's not that hard either. Hitting a moving apple size target at anything beyond bow range is hard.
