I believe that is good to be humbled your first year of bowhunting...My first year I got a doe on my first morning in a stand and double lunged my biggest buck to date at 30 yards 3 weeks later. Needless to say that spoiled my as$. Now if I don't get a deer in oct. I feel like I have failed.

It is also my opinion that once god graces you with your first bow deer, you won't be quitting anytime soon after that.

Good luck
