OK i grow up fishing camping hiking but not hunting non of my family hunted my grandparents did not no one but a few uncles

I talked my parents into buying me a bow for my 13th or 14 birthday
which took alot for my mom to go for it

I but hunting games for the PC everything i could hunting.
Heck i only ever remember my dad only owning a 22 rifle when i was a kid
But for some reason since i was 10 or 11 i wanted to hunt
Now i head into my 5th year still deer less.
But i can not wait until season roles around

I thins about Deer hunting when i cook when i sleep. Heck i even glass ever field and woods when i am in the car even if i am the one behind the wheel. yes i look into the woods when i drive. Not a good thing to do but i do it.

I started deer hunting on my own 10 years ago. First with a muzzle loader and then 4 or 5 years ago, I decided to try bow hunting. I purchased a compound bow on my own, taught myself to shoot and adjust sights, everything. Then after I could hit a tennis ball at 25 yards on a consistent basis, I asked one of the avid bow hunters I know to help me along. He has counselled me and given me tips, but I have always bow hunted on my own. My father never took me hunting, but my grandfather gave me my first firearm. I think about bow hunting every time I see a deer at anytime during the year. After the deer season closes for the year, I even get a little depressed. I have been lucky to live/hunt in Iowa where it's really hard not to see a deer.

Now if you start spooning with them like some other(s) on HNI, then you have a problem!
