An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.

My first trad buck was very similar.  He's in my avatar.  Went through both hams and thankfully hit a big vessel on the way through.  My next kills were better.  It's a process and there is no end point.  Great job.
Take a kid hunting!

Great Job.  I did the same thing on a Cow Elk, thankfully recovered her after 200 yds. Life is full of lessons!
