10yrs after I killed my first deer with a bow,a friend invited me on my first gun hunt in 10yrs.I killed a doe and realized that my passion was archery it was the first time I didn't get the shakes after killing a deer.Archery has been my only passion since.I STILL GET THE SHAKES NOW.I don't kill as many deer now,but having the deer close and watching them is such a rush.
2 changing from a deer killer(always worried if I tag out)to a deer hunter enjoying the time in the woods.I feel that is what archery has given me and that is why it is such a passion for me.
