I never got excited before the shot. Even way back when I was new. After the shot, or after a closeencounter with no shot, I would shake like crazy.
Now, I don't really shake much after the shot either. Especially a doe, I'm excited, don't get me wrong, but I amin full control. A big buck depends on the situation. If I see it fall I'll get a little shakey/anxious. This past yearthe thought of placingbad shot on him erased any and all"good" excitement...Until he went down and I was happy.
