RE: I feel horrible
One thing I would suggest...Check your gun, again...This is SOP whenever I take any guests up to our farms to hunt...It doesn't matter if they miss, or get a bad hit...I can tell their confidence is shaken and they need reassurance...Sometimes it is the gun, best to find out now and it will also help your confidence....
About 2 weeks ago I missed a doe with my bow...Twice!!!!
I checked my bow, everything was good...Went to a pro shop that I trust, on Saturday morning, he spent some time with me and showed me what I was doing wrong, took 15-20 minutes...Since then, I have killed 2 does, hit both perfectly....
