Yeah, I think with those easy ones we tend to not concentrate like we should and rush things. We already have the deer on the ground and are planning the posing for pics or picking out the pose for the mount. Then all of a sudden the arrow goes over or under the deer and WTF just happened. You start kicking yourself for blowing it.

Nothing is automatic in bowhunting, you still have to do it just like you practice it a thousand times in the backyard.
This is a grrreat post. These were my thoughts exactly. I know I rushed it, but I had to. They were rushing me . I had just hung my bow up on a limb beside me. Not 45seconds later I look down and here they come. I reached around ripped my bow off the limb stood up, looked through my bino's and realized WOW they are comming fast. I drew my bow, held for 30secs, gave the mouth grunt and released. All in about 30seconds.
