I guess it's just that anticipation, hearing that deer walking in from 150 yards out and waiting......knowing how one mistake could ruin my chance..
Matt, I think you're on to something here. That's exactly what's taking place! You're all pumped up (anticipation) hoping to see something, and when you do have a deer come in, you're already putting pressure on yourself not make a mistake. Think the oppisite way. When you see a deer coming, just say, that's coolI was expecting this, now all I have to do is wait a little bit andput that killer shot on her/him, like I know I can. My practise has shown me this. You can't say enough about confidence!
