I have yet to prove to myself that I am a good bowhunter. I am mostly self taught, having learned most of what I know here at HNI. I have killed several deer and a few dozen feral hogs in 3 1/2 years of bowhunting. I am proficient, but am I good? Maybe not yet. When I get a mature buck on the ground we will talk again. When I consistantly get mature bucks on the ground, well, then I'm good.
