Wow, how times have changed. I went years without killing a deer when I first started, and that was with a gun. Now we want one within the first 4 hunts? Instant gratification strikes again. Not to bust your chops but relax. Enjoy the whole hunt and don't be so blood thirsty that you feel you have to have a kill on the first outing. I wonder how many guys today would still be hunting if they had to deal with the deer numbers we did when I was young and even more when guys like davidml was starting out.
