Girl, your well on your way to in terms of being a great hunter. To me a big key is knowing your limits (based on ability) and sticking to those limits when it comes to being in the field. Once you have assessed this area you then choose spots that will put you in the position to have opportunities to fill your tags. With time your ability may grow through practice, etc then you can change your set ups.

BTW not everybody can pull off 200 plus yard shots on a regular basis. When you stretch it out their is more than seeing the target that must be assessed and while some might consider it just shooting, it is a very definate skill that is not accomplished easily without considerable effort on a regular basis. Nemot, explained that many factors were considered before his daughter took the shot and they spent considerable time on the range to know her abilities or limits. He obviously knew that a long shot maybe required for the area they hunt and therefore put the effort in long before the hunt ever happened! These skill sets are often in stilled based on the area and game we each may hunt...it is not that your inadequate in any way, in fact your more than likely in the norm just not everyone freely admits it!

Keep up the good work and don't ever worry about what X,Y or Z is saying...just take care of "I" or in this case "U".
