Default RE: The "fever" stories... let's hear 'em

My first year bow hunting I was sitting in a ground blind I had built under a big cedar tree. A really nice 10 pt came strolling by in the pasture I was by and stopped right infront of a small evergreen and started eating, which placed only his head behind the tree. My blind didn't alow me a shot in this direction so I slipped out into the open pasture to take a shot. I remember thinking "This is perfect! this bow hunting thing isn't that hard"
Yup, that's when I started shaking, right before I Drew my bow and at about 1/2 draw my arrow shook off my rest and bounced across the shelf. Well the Buck looked up to see what all the racket was and didn't seem too pleased to discover that I was standing about 10yards away. Darn I'm good.
