Hi farmchick,

As my dad used to say when I was a little boy, "thats why they call it huntin and NOT deer watchin" ...heh
I am not sure how normal it is for everyone else, but I'm a beginner too (in my 3rd season) and I've only killed a handfull of deer.. I can go a few weeks w/o seeing a thing! then days like last monday happened and it keeps me going. I saw the biggest deer I've seen while hunting (a 9 point) but it was out of range for me. So when I wake up at 4am on those COLD COLD mornings and debate getting out of my warm bed, I think about that 9 point and think "today is the day" and usually happens its NOT, but yeah, that keeps me going.

Keep learning all you can learn, and dont give up. you've only been at this a short time..it will happen for you!

Keep asking questions, keep readin, and most of all keep huntin!!

Good luck
