This is will be my fourth year in the whitetail woods, though last year was an improvement from previous lets just say I've had my ups and downs over the years.
I have practiced at the range tremendously this year putting well over 200 rounds down the rifle and making the shot... at the range. I feel completely confident taking shots up to 150 with a rest and 100 off the knees. I practice at soda cans at 80 and have never missed. Woodchucks=1 me=4, = complete confidence in my rifle. probably dry fired several hundred rounds, some at whitetail photos for shot placement. What i am saying is that I have done everything, EVERYTHING in my power to get ready. (including humbling myself that many people will read of my errors on this post)

However confident I can be, I'm still Leary that it could all come unraveled when the target comes into range. I have wounded a couple deer(2) missed a couple, and have literally had bad dreams. I have traced some due to my error and others to brush that i couldn't see.

Anyway what helps you to make the shot and stay cool under the pressure. I'm looking for insight and confidence builders. I appreciate the help
