I'm more concerned with the meat running away in its entirety...

Anchoring it and getting one steak is better than not anchoring it and getting no steaks.

We are talking about big and dangerous game in this instance. Keep in mind that pretty much all PHs will encourage their hunter to keep shooting irrespective of the lethality of the first shot, either rifle or handgun. They don't want you to lose your animal less than you do.
