FWIW

I am, by no means, a bow-hunting expert. But, it seems to me that it isn't, necessarily, the size of the animal that matters but how tough it is. I mean tough in terms of skin and muscle as well as how much pain and damage it can endure. Moose are big and quite strong but, from what I understand, a musk ox has thicker hair, skin and denser muscle. It seems to me that an arrow would do more damage, quicker, to a moose than it would an ox. Once again, I'm no expert. This is nothing more than my 2 cents worth.
