I'm partly in the method stage, I'm fairly new to bow hunting and am trying to get as much equipment/gear as I can afford. I'm also in the Trophy stage as I pass up on most bucks that I see. But I'm also in the Mellow-Out stage as I have been gun hunting for 14 years and have shot my fair share of deer and now, if I see deer great, if I don't oh-well at least I got to spend the day or several hours outdoors.
But no matter what, my heart still races ever time I see a deer coming towards me and when that stops happening, I'll be in the "Dead Stage"
