Wound is less than the minimum size required for fast incapacitation with lung shot. Very small wound from a bow through lungs. No incapacitation from CNS damage in most cases. Bullets make bigger wounds. We don't know how small the minimum is for "satisfactory" results but it appears that an arrow wound is often below that minimum.
