No need to hit vitals with a bow. If you hit the animal, it will die, even if the first blood track says that the health is at "99-99%". Just wait 10 minutes, then follow it until you find it dead somewhere.
With recruve bow always force yourself to shoot really low.

Movement of the bow - that is a matter of skill level
Where to aim - that is a matter of experience, but a nice player posted this images, which are very helpful...

Re: Mission Help Wanted/Offered
If you use tracer arrows, they will not fly off after the first shot. Therefore you have more attempts.
