I agree with mobowhunter, it was a succesfull hunt! I amalso new to bow hunting, this is only my second year at it. We all make mistakes, the key is to learn from your mistakes. You probably won't ever be able to calm yourself down all the way before the shot and that's what keeps us all going out there time after time. Don't worry about the mistakes made, just learn from them and it will all come together sooner or later. Good luck and happy hunting.
