I went, saw but did not kill but gosh dang my blood was pumping like never before when that first deer was close!!

Thanks for the counsel and advice last week - I had a ton of fun bow hunting. When the first deer walked though, my heart was jumping out of my chest.

I was shaking so damn bad I could not control it! I have never experienced any hunting like it.

I saw one little buck, a one year old doe and a big old doe. I was going to try to put an arrow in the big doe but the young one busted me - chalk it up to my inexperience. I waited too long to get set for the shot - they were less than 15 yards from me.

I will do this again....one poster was correct - I noticed things that I never notice when gun hunting - it was cool to try to blend in with nature and stay as still as possible.

Pretty much sums up why I'll never gun hunt again.

wait until you shoot one. i shot my first deer with a bow last year and it happend to be an 8pt. i was surprised how calm i was during the shot. but soon as the deer ran off and i knew i made the shot... i was shaking uncontrollably. I went home to sit for 2 hrs to give the deer time "i didnt want to mess this up" after an hr and half waiting on couch my wife walked in and looked at me and almost got in a panic and asked was i okay because i was shaking so much. My teeth chattered when i talked, and this was almost 2 hrs after the shot. The adreneline rush was amazing! Good luck
