RE: Arrow Recovery
if it hit sticks, saplings, branches etc dont worry about it...it probably blew up into 100 pieces. dont ask me how i know
if its just high grass or something, just gotta search. should been ground directly behind your target and arrow should have stuck into it...
i burried 1 in my yard once...just under the grass...i found it a year later...dont ask me how lol. it was just woven under the grass...
good luck...arrows get expensive...try taking shots so when you shoot at the rabbit or whatever, if you DO miss your arrow shouldnt go far...like above the rabbit slightly, closer shots, hillside behind the rabbit etc...also use bright fletchings and maybe a wrap...maybe even a reflective wrap...good luck

RE: Arrow Recovery
First off I wouldn't be shooting Muzzy tipped arrows at rabbits without Grasshoppers on them. Consider that arrow gone unless you simply go back and search and search and search some more. Is it aluminum, regardless, take a metal detector or just get over it, it's gone.
