Eat up to the hole definitely applies here
Next question. Would you eat a heart cut open with an arrow? Never done heart, I guess I can just trim off the portion the arrow went through. I’ll take another look, but it doesn’t appear bruised, despite being almost bisected. Some of the meat on the leg was bruised and I had to cut it off. But the heart looks good other than cut wide open.
Not really worried here about bone or lead/jacket in it since it was a crossbow bolt.
Thoughts? Just curious to try cooking it up as I’ve always chucked them in the past (then again, I seem to generally end up with heart shots on deer, so the heart often is spiced or completely perforated from an arrow). I guess I can just cook up a small portion to try it.
There is a real concern with carbon fibers. Even if the arrow shaft didn't break, I wouldn't in this case.
