A friend in SA shot an impala. It jumped like it had been spooked by the shot, looked around and then carried on browsing. He actually nocked a second arrow, because he thought he had missed, (and you pay for the animal you shoot at even if you miss over there...) After a few minutes, the animal sat, then rolled over and expired - turns out he made a perfect heart lung shot.
