Default How long have you gone without a deer?

I think I've got a record streak going. I haven't shot a deer for two years, hunting fairly hard. This season I saw a 6-point on my first time out but Wi has an earn a buck (shoot a doe before you shoot a buck) For the next five times I have not even seen a deer. My wife is getting suspicous, because I get all cleaned up before I go to hunting, but never come home with a deer. She also razzed me all winter because she brought a road kill home and I zeroed out on hunting. In preparation for this year, I've work on my shooting since last year, planted food plots, worked on sent control, bought a new bow, tried new stands, worked on deer calling, bought new arrows and bow, but still the moment eludes me. Is it a waste of time or is it just a matter of time. A friend is going to sent me up in an apple orchard tomarrow. We'll see, but when ever someone puts me in a killer spot - the deer disappear...
