i feel ya...my second season as well, although this is the first one ive hunted seriously in. i tooo would have passed. there are some big big deer in my area and im not gunna waste my one buck tag on anything small. i go in and out with my feelings about taking a doe. one day ill want to tag one, the next im waitin for a big buck passing numerous shots. ive shot once at a doe, shot under her. i think now im just gunna wait for a shooter buck as my first bow kill. just a personal choice tho.
