Yup she sure is lucky his buddy was using Rages. If he had anything else on the tip of that arrow this story wouldn't have a happy ending.
Teaches us all a lesson though, don't shoot Rage BHs.

"As the shooter, whose bow was drawn, attempted to throw the shot away, the arrow accidentally released."

Does this mean he was letting the draw off . . .not sure what kind of bow was being used, but, my Max would have taken his head off.

He must have been trying to let off the draw of a vertical bow, right?
