Another thread, and similar threads over the years have often left me shaking my head. I think in an effort to profess their love for bowhunting you will hear people say, "When that feeling goes(shakes when a deer is coming in)I guess it will be time to hang up the bow".
I don't feel that way. I see it as becoming the true predator. When the deer comes in I want to become the tiger waiting to pounce. I call it getting in the zone. You don't have to shake to be happy. You can become the fly on the wall and be in charge of what happens next. Bury your eyes in your target. Pick the moment of truth. You should become the ultimate guerilla fighter. Strike when they least expect it. You don't have to shake to have fun. I say you've become the guerilla and ultimate predator when you can tune the world out, except that which you need to be aware of and make the shot. In fact, making the shot is the easy part. Tuning in to pounce, picking your spot, having the deer look you in the eye and deciding you're nothing is the ultimate if you can do it with an attitude of, "I'm in Charge". Become the hunter, become the predator, become the arrow.
