I am considering myself one of these yahoos at the moment. I have been shooting my bow for months and months, practicing daily in every way i can, but when it came down to it this morning there was nothing between me and a big doe except lack of preperation or lack of experience, im not sure. I misjudged the distance and missed. EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!! was perfect except my shot placement. luckly i missed badly enough i didnt hit the deer at all. maybe im being to hard on myself but between 6:30 and 7:30 AM today my confidence level fell like an idiot in a broken deer stand. I am going to sacrafice a lot of hunting time this weekend tho and practice some more. And i have to find a way to mark my distances in the feild. Ive never had much trouple judging the distance but i guess the fever took over me today [:' (] moral of the story, if there is one, you cant be prepared enough.
