How many guys that you know use the excuse "I didn't shoot onethis year because I pass everything under XXX inches"? That seems more like a cop out orexcuse to me more than anything.
What I am saying isif we don't shoot a buck it is because we didn't put ourselves in position to make it happen, no matter the size of buck you are after......or did not execute when the moment arrived...... plain and simple.
Am I crazy for thinking this when I hear people say that line?

As are most things, I think this is just an oversimplified way at looking at a complex problem.I think thatthere is a large amount of luck involved with killing a specific deer. E.G. does he stop in the shooting lane or for some unknown reason just decide to jump through it, does he hang around your stand for 15 minutes and never give you a quality shot, etc. I truly believe that you can do everything right and still end up with nothing, especially in bowhunting. That is why it is so sweet when things do come together.
