I can tell ya right now anything you get with a bow the first time is going to be better than getting a vette for christmas

Dont get caught up in the trophy thing already. You seem like an honest person and your post got my respect. as for the uncontrollable shakes, thats what keeps you comming back for more, nothing like an adreniline rush

I seem to have a better grip on that part now, i guess it comes with age but after the shot i still get tore up and can hear my heart beat when i breath. I cant even began to tell you about the hardships i had when i was a young hunter and how long it took for me to even take a deer, most people would have quit. I still get a rush from having deer so close when bowhunting and even taking a doe is still special and exciting. My first was a doe then an 8 point then some spikesand other 1 1/2 olds for many years.i was cursed with 3 points for awhile and then started getting some really nice bucks latter on. I now trophy hunt and am teaching my kids the roaps. They have it made[8D] Get out there and get that first one man, trust me you wont regret it. I have not regreated any of the deer i have taken over the years and would do it all over again. Good luck, now do it!!
