Default OK..how many has never shot a deer yet with a bow?

I will confess..I have not shot one yet with a bow nor pulled my bow string back yet..I did have a doe get within 15 yds..and she got wind of me..

I've also seen more deer from a distance from my stand.

Today I did some more shooting from my Summit..I did not have the shakes and shot many bull's eyes..I have a shooting bar across my Summit so I can't shoot sitting down..My bow has an axle to axle of about 42" .I was shooting broadheads.

Next Sat.is the first day.

I have never shot a deer with my bow. But Idid pull my bow back on a doe at about 20 yards. But the angle was just to steep to feel comfortable shooting. Maybe this year I will get one.

I haven't killed anything with my bow yet. This is my first year bow hunting I hope I get something this year. I'm going for Black bear, Blacktail, and Elk so hopefully I get all 3. Ha I'm praying.
