Default RE: am i a bad hunter

Have faith and keep at it. Sometimes it is the simple things that count. When I find myself in a funk sometimes it is time to get back to the basics. Check your weapon make sure it will not let you down when the time comes. Practice make sure you are confident that you can make the shot. Sometimes you got to forget about all that technology and just hunt. Think like a deer. learn all you can about thier habits. What time of the season is it? What are the deer thinking about? Food or water or does or what? Then put yourself in the path of whatever they want. Know your area like the back of your hand. Scout during the off season so you know where the deer go all year around. This helps when you can' t find them during season. All of this stuff takes time and patience and you sound like you are using both wisely. Stick to it and it will come around. Think like a deer and forget about all those calls and lures. They have thier place but there are many more deer shot each year without them than with. Basics, Basics, Basics. Bedding ground, food, water, does. Deer are alot like men alittle of each of these and we are happy. put yourself in the right spot and it will seem easy.
