i hunted for yrs. before i got a deer ......it takes time....spend time in the woods learning and devoloping your hunting skills, when God wants you to have one, it'll all happen.......dont rush your shots when you do an oppurtunity....identify your target and BEYOND......good luck and i hope you have your deer soon......it's more about the time soent in the woods , the kill is just the final chapter, then the hard work begins, lol.....dragging it out and cleaning it, lol.....
