Hi everyone, I just thought I'd say hi and introduce myself since I'm new to these forums. My name is Amy and I'm 17, I'm a taxidermist so I've always been really interested in hunting. I've been hunting smaller game for several years (squirrel, rabbit, and dove) but this is my first year hunting deer. I got a bow only about a month ago and have been practicing alot with it, and went hunting for the first time last saturday. I shot at a 4 pointer that was about 12 yards away, unfortunately I had sighted in my pin at 20 yards and being unexperienced with a bow as I am, I didn't account for having to aim lower so my arrow shot right over the deer. What a bummer but I just hope to do better next time!
