That's actually how I came up with my name - I have done some pretty stupid stuff over live targets. :D I once missed the same buck at 12 yards two days in a row. I can group arrow after arrow within a couple inches at the stationary targets, but for whatever reason the past few years I'm losing focus over live targets - never used to be like that. I get freaked out and nervous and in a hurry. As we all know, that's a really bad combination of things to have going for you when shooting at a live deer.

Sorry to here the bad luck bob[:o]I can`t say anything I have had my share of crazy things happen myself. I have lost deer with the same type shot you described. What really bite`s is when you think you have made a good shot and to believe he is down maby 50-60yrds away only to be suprised to know he is not down at all:(?It sux! "But Thats just bowhunting"good luck next time.

So how about it fellas? Any big plans for the weekend? It's supposed to rain here, but I'm going to be in the woods as much as the weather allows me to be. A good leaf soaking would be good for an afternoon stalk.

I tried to get us on the board but like an idiot blew the shot. I'll give my best this weekend. What's up with the rest of you? Anyone heard from Cougar Mag?

Well guy I'm leaving work today for my 2nd week off so wish me luck. I've not been seeing very many deer so hopefully that will change next week. Good Luck to everybody and I'll update you in a week.

Dang it guys, I'm seeing deer everyday but just not no shooters. Snow is on the ground and makes hunting much easier. The best is yet to come, good luck guys.

Well I almost had one down saturday morning? Had about a 100 class 8 pt
come down the trail about 5 min after getting into the stand. He came in walking right behind me going to my right It was stillnot good light yet but I could see fine. He was out about 25 yrds when I drew I made a grunting noise with my voice to stop him. Well he stoped alright. Right behind some small brush[:'(]I could tell if I was to releasemyarrow I would hit everything but the deer? So I had to hold at full fraw untill he started walking again but as luck would have it there was no other opening`s as he walk on so I let down hoping something else would show up butnothing ever did other than one doe. But? I have seen much larger bucks around the area I am hunting than this one I saw sat. I am taking off work thur-fri along with sat-sunday to hunt. So with any luck maby something bigger will show up;)I know we are getting off to a slow start but it would but real cool to come back and win this thing after giving a few team a head start:DGood luck team..
