Been hunting with a bow now for going on 9 seasons. I have yet to take a shot at a deer. Closest I cam was last year. I drew on a doe, and when the bow hit the wall, the arrow popped out of the arrow rest and bounced off of the riser. All 5 deer left in a hurried manner. I think I haven' t killed a deer yet because I haven' t been putting the effort in. Last year, I hunted hard. And it showed through the deer I saw and also my closest encounter with one. This year, I' ll hunt even harder. Also, I bought a new arrow rest, a bodoodle. No more arrows popping off of the arrow rest.
