Well this will be my third year bowhunting, and I am still looking for my first bow kill. My first year I went with a friend simply to learn. Last year, I drew back on two fawns opening day, but didnt let the arrow go, i guess I am a good guy (jk). Then the last week of the season, not expecting to have anything come into bow range, a doe walked to 25 yards quickly on me, I was so surprised I forgot to pick what pin to use, I ended up using the 20 yard and send it just under her belly. I am grateful I have had the oppurtunity to harvest these animals, I just havnt been ready. This year I am shooting the best I ever have (very efficient at 15,20,25 yards) and I am looking forward to getting on stand. My first priority is to get a doe with my bow...then, I am after some bucks. I am in college so dont get to hunt a lot or get to scout much, but I am ready and cant wait for the upcoming season.

Third times a charm!

Hopefully we'll both get our first this year.I just started late last year and only got out a few times. Saw deer each time, but not within range or not a clear shot.Except for the buck that snuck up on me while I was sitting up against a fence post with my bow at my feet[:@]

hopefully, all 3 of us will get our first this year

LMAO...That's funny.....I say that same thing every year! Read my signature! I started bow hunting in 1998. Igot severly injured2 days before the season started and hadto miss the whole hunting season that year. In 2001, I finally got a button buck and last year I got a doe. Last yearI bought my first new bow which meant I no longer had any excuses. I've missed at least 1 buck every year for one reason or another. The most misses per year is4 and one year I missed the same buck twice. The reasonsareeverything from buck fever to a frozen peep. Keep hoping, it's a wonderful sport that takes a lot of practice and even more patience.

This will also be my 3rd year hunting and I am still waiting on my first bow kill. I got a shot on a doe opening day last year but the blood trail just disapeared. We had people looking from 7:00 in the morning till 9:00 that night for that deer and we just couldnt find her. I was so dissapointed. I did get a nice oppportunity at a nine point later on but I aimed too low and sent the arrow right under him.

I did manage to find my doe a couple months later in a big brushy pile, not much left after the coyotes got to her, but she was probably only 100 yards from my stand. Hopefully I have better luck this year.

dont feel bad about not getting one, you learn so much from your mistakes, just have fun and keep trying.

jsut be patient...hopefully all of you get one
