I have not been hunting yet. My husband bought me a bow for mother's day. He loves shooting his bow ecspecially once it hits Aug. but he felt like he should cut back so we could have more time together, I shot a bow in highschool a few times and it was fun so I gave him a solution to his problem. There was no way I was even close to good enough last year to go so I didn't but I am thinking I will hunt this year. But just shooting is addicting. He was doing an archery league so about a month or so ago I started going with him and shooting. And now I am hooked on shooting! Josh had me start scoring so I could track my progress and I am glad that I did. The first week I started I shot a 217, better than I thought, the next week I dropped to 214 and then I shot a 249 a few days ago I shot a 256. So now I feel confident that I could shoot a deer.
