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

Back when i was just learing to bowhunt I thought i had every thing under control. I mean i could hit just about any thing i shot at up to 25 yrds which was pretty good for me back then. UNTIL opening day of deer season came[&:] I was sitting there when this doe came up on me to my right. I was up in a tree about 20 feet . When i look over and saw her she was about 15 yrds from me when i started to get up and take a shot. she looked up at me and and i started shaking so bad that i thought i was going fall she turned and ran off and 15 min later another doe came up and started milling around about 20 yrds away. I drew my bow back and while i was trying to aim i started shaking again[:@] this doe looked at me and just keeped looking at me. I was a cmplet mess I was shooting fingers. When i released the arrow i herd a loud slap? the deer just keeped looking at me? I looked up in this pine tree which was in front of me and there was my arrow at least five feet higher than i was? Well to let you know i did not kill my first deer until the nexted season.
