This was my first bowseason being skunked. I did pass on 4 different bucks and couldn' t quite get a shot at a few more. But nonetheless, it was a skunker. I have harvested 1 doe during gun so far. I spend an enormous amount of time in the woods between bow and gun. I can relate to what you' re saying. However, it' s not how many you harvest it' s the experiences you get. I know ultimately we' re out there to harvest deer, and it gets tough sometimes. Keep a positive attitude and get back to enjoying hunts (whether seeing deer or not). I have just as much hop in my step in the AM going to hunt as I ever have. And I consider this probably my worst hunting season yet (as far as deer taken). I wouldn' t trade it for the world. Relax and hang in there. Ya know they can sense anxiety too!!! lol
