Don't want your cloud but hang in there. I've been hunting for 30 years plus and still have my ups and downs. If it was easy we wouldn't do it. I've killed my share of deer and a few good bucks over the years. I find if something comes in that I'm not shooting like a young buck or a doe after I have my freezer full, I'm calm as can be. Let 'ol Mack Daddy Mossy Horns step out and my heart beats out of my chest. Same thing if I'm meat hunting and it's a doe! When I stop getting fired up....I'll law the bow down.

By the way, not pushing it and taking the marginal shot you mention above is to be comended! Keep doing what your doing and it will happen. Sounds like you are seeing shooters just not getting it all to come together for you. Have fun and good luck.
