Default RE: Controlling the "Big Buck" Anxiety

I get more nervous on deer I'm not going to shoot and just want towatch walk by. Heavy breathing and the shakes that just wont stop. But for some reason, maybe its killer instinct I dont know, I become very calm once i decide I am going to shoot a buck.

when i shot my last buck I had 4 does at 20 yards and I thought i was going to pass out I was so nervous. Then out walked the buck I shot and I was suddenly able to control everything even though i had to watch him approach from 80 yards and wait about 10 minutes until he fed his way in for a good shot. Of course after i shot him I again lost control of everything.
