RE: buck fever/ animal fever
When I was ten, I started hunting and I used to pass out whent the deer were coming. If they just showed up, I was fine but if I could see them for some time my dad would turn to see if I was ready and I' d be out like a light. Stop Laughing!!![:@]I' m 39 now and that first year was the only year that it happened but ever since then I get really excited as the deer approach. I concentrate on where I will get my shot and try to play it out in my head before the deer is in range. What is funny, I may be all jumpy as the deer approaches but as soon as I draw, I am completely calm. It is pretty cool.
I think this is the first time I ever told anyone about the passing out thing.
