We could tell that Immediately. Upon arrival there was blood everywhere and after a mile and a half tracking him in the snow I finally caught up to him and finished the job. I hit the shoulder all right, but just below the knuckle. And there is nothing vital behind it. So unless you recover the animal you can't know what happened.

A low shot in the high leg could result in the same reaction.
It would be hard to tell unless I was there looking through a spotting scope.
