If you aim (and hit) well it does kill fast. No animal lives long with its main arteries severed. That's why arrows have arrowheads. There are also other kind of arrowheads, for example shock heads for smaller animals, but for larger animals the method is cutting the arteries. That is why they had arrowheads starting from the stone age; it is fucking impractical or even destructive (for the humans) to track animals for days. These weapons were developed for serious shit, not as toys.

Not only could you brag about it just as much, but the Lion or whatever gets to live another day. Brilliant!!

Brilliant maybe, but not in any way necessary or better unless it is about endangered animal. Something has to die so that we can live. It is so about all living things. So, what is the point in not killing that particular animal (when hunting) if you anyways kill other living things countless of numbers (and so does that animal you saved)? It is maybe nice gesture to some, but that is all it is.
Conservation is conserving environment and species, not about individual animals/ living things.
