You know what I....I think that you are absolutely correct. Take a "#2" before going out. Poopy-pants does not make for an enjoyable hunt,

I would say number one hands down is buck/doe fever! Alot of guys do everything right, only to blow it right as they take the shot! Number two is not scouting enough to be set up right. Number three would be not knowing your equipment well enough to be proficient with it!
