RE: Tough year...
2 rifle bucks down for me this year but no archery bucks.I think anyone can relate to what you are experiencing.I am a firm believer in giving it all you have and accepting what ever happens.That is not a justification for failure,and I do mean giving it all you have,not a half hearted effort.I also find it important to enjoy all aspects of hunting.I have had some of the best things in my life happen to me when I just focused on the things that I could control and went at it in a relaxed way.
Good luck Dan! I hope you take a beauty!
