If you make a bad shot and your animal runs 20 yards out, it helps to be able to make a second shot.

That's a great point!
I hit an elk once about 3-4 inches too far back... I had to sit and watch it stand there for over an hour at 70 yards. I couldn't get any close to put it out of it's misery until it bedded down into some thick brush. If i had practiced that far I could have easily put another arrow into it, and even if it wasn't a perfectly placed shot the second arrow probably would've killed very fast.
