RE: Did you get the first deer you shot at?
I was very young, maybe 3rd grade? And I went with my dad and some family friends to Sout-West Tx on a doe hunt. I had been to the range many times and shot my gun. The big day arrived and the shot was short of her by at least 10yrds.lol I haven't missed one since with a gun.
First shot I took at a deer with a bow was 3 yrs ago. I had a doe at about 20 yrds and I shot under her by about a foot. I was more nervous on her than I was on that first deer when I was a kid. I haven't taken another shot at a deer with my bow since, even though it is the only weapon I've hunted with since then.
