There's two I can think of.

How about....crap I missed or wounded one.

Those words should make you take your time and settle down.

This is my first year bow hunting, but I have been shotgun and muzzleloading for years. Every time I see my deer, I remind myself with "Breathe dammit!". It calms the nerves for the steady shot.

Good Luck! Aim, deep breath, let it out slowly, let 'er rip.
