RE: Goals for the upcoming fall......
Goal for '06 is to get my first bowkill whitetail. I haven't hunted with a bow since 1993. I missed a six point twice in 5 minutes from 15 yrds. I was picking out individual letters on a bag of mulch, and nailing them from 25 ydsat my parents house before the hunt. Left to go get in the stand and when I get there I reach in my pocket and my release isn't there. An hour later, a nice 6 pt comes under me and I miss him twice with my fingers. Will never forget that day. Big bummer. I wasn't shaking or nervous- I just wan't used to shooting with fingers. Since then I have lived in 5 states on the east coast. I have not bowhunted since that day. I'm now back in Va and plan to get one this year. This forum has helped immensely with info and advice. I now have a more modern setup and am shooting great. I have a couple of good spots and plan on connecting this fall...Thanks for everyone's help
