    Don't worry Fitz.
    No blood or not a lot of blood doesn't mean anything at this point.
    If your arrow is stuck in there it may be bleeding internally.
    You got this Buddy do what you know and go find him

    So is the 6" of shaft broke off?

    Hopefully with a 2nd set of eyes you guys can get on some blood.

    No, the arrow and bh are intact. It's bright red blood, no bubbles, some flesh.

    I agree with Mr. Pearce. The blood has to be going somewhere. Do you think it was far shoulder or near shoulder Fitz? Sure wish I could help!

    White hair sounds like the shot is low. Good luck buddy, hopefully you punched something vital.

    Yeah, I'm going to vote white hair probably means not the shoulder. Awaiting cheerful reply from you.
