Default RE: Your first shot at a deer with bow....hit/miss?

I missed. I was out with a 45# pearson recurve. I was rather young 14 I think. I was on the ground as well. A nice 8 point buck walked out. I pulled and released with out thinking. I hit the deer in the antlers and made a heck of noise. He shook his head, looked around and trotted off. I learned a major leason that day. Calm down, focuse on form, find a spot on the deer, and aim at that spot. The next deer I hit perfect. A doe broad side at 15 yards. I have not got buck fever like that since.
