HOLLY CRAP ! ! ! ! ! !

OMG I did it. Well most of you might not know that I've never shot a deer with anything, not even a gun. I've been hunting since I was 12, and now I'm 37. I've hunted every year, but nothing. I really enjoy hunting, so it wasn't a big deal. But the last 3 years, I've been really trying to step up my game, so I could hit a deer if one walked out in front of me. So to say the least I was very confident that if one walked out in front of me I believed it would be dead. Well I got that chance yesterday and now we have a DOE HANGINGIN THE GARAGE. WOW is this awesome. This is what it feels like? She wasn't a huge deer byno means, but it"s a deer. WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Man finally after 25 years I did it! ! ! !

Thanks guy's for all the great help and info.

Congrats! So what do you think the difference was this year? Maybe " confident enough that you could kill it" you need to believe that everytime you step in to the woods. Now with this under your belt you will start to have more sucess.

RE: HOLLY CRAP ! ! ! ! ! !

congrats!!!! That is a great story. I can relate (sort of). I'm 35, started when I was 12 and didn't see a single deer my first 4 years. I was about going nuts at that point though. I can't believe you hung in there all these years. kudos to you!!!! This has got to be a GREAT day for you. Congrats again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
