Default RE: Ever missed on the first shot, and connected on the followup?

Yes.

One hunt my confidence was pretty low after a rough week. About 1/2 before end of the hunt a doe came walking down from behind me at 10 yards. I drew, shot and missed. Doe jumped and ended up standing looking around 25 yards from the tree. No clue what had happened. Took out another arrow and got her with a perfect double lung shot, tracking job was 30 yards.

First deer I ever shot I almost shot twice. After the shot she did a big back leg kick, spun and came down in the same spot. Heck I thought I missed. While I got another arrow nocked (15 yards from deer). She caught me drawing and ran off. 15 minutes later I got down to check and found the arrow and lots of blood
