My first couple years I didn't expect to shoot a buck, let alone a big buck. I wanted to get a deer or two under my belt before I tried my luck on an antlered deer.

I'd taken several does before this season, so I set my sights this year on a buck.

The friend that I just got into archery is going into next season the same way I went into my first. Nothing with spots, but don't expect a trophy.
