This can happen with rifles shots too. I have seen it on a couple deer i have shot one on snow and one on grass.
The one on snow no blood in 200 yards on a running deer. I was ****ed. I walked over the hill with my dad to double check and it looked like fire water bombers of blood. I was 16 or so at the time. 2 lung shots.
The one on the grass. My grandfather and dad saw a good shot i made on a running WT. they said he was hit good. He ran 300 ish yards Lung shot again. I was about 20
My elk this year. Running again. The shots sounded good with the plop. One in the heart one in the lungs one in the liver. No blood again. On grass. 350 yards over the hill. I saw thr trees fall like something wiped them out as it rolled them over. Had i not seen the trees rolled down i may not have looked as hard as i did as the landscape perspective changes when u get there. I am 40 now and know to pay attention to the details.
