The bigger they are, the calmer I get. Just like in sports, I can just concentrate on executing whatever needs to be done and blocking everything out. Now, after the arrow hits is a whole different story.

I'm the same way as you hardwoods. I get in the zone as the deer is moving to me and its after the shot that I'm shaking like a leaf and my heart is pounding out of my chest.

I tell myself something kind of weird... I tell myself that the deer isa dog. Some how that calms me down (And NO I'd never shoot a dog)! I said it was weird but it works forme!

When you see something you wanna shoot just put it in Kill Mode.

Works for me!

When i first see any deer the adrenaline deffinately gets pumping. But i soon calm down and i cant really say i get nervous but i do get excited. But after i release the arrow i just fall apart, i love that feeling.
