Well Guys I don' t know why I feel the need to confess,but here goes anyway.Been shooting all summer,fine tuning,fine tuning,fine tuning,and feeling pretty good about the season that just opened here in N.J.
Got out late Sat. and did' nt see a thing in the woods.(saw about 100 off the road going home)Went out last night for about 2 hours and missed clean at 12 yds. broadside!
This is a humbling sport,I hope it always is for me.Looked at the whole deer just at the release and natuaraly,shot under.Learn,Learn,Learn,always pick a spot and then follow through.
At least it was a clean miss!

Ah yes,,,the whole deer syndrome...Welcome to bowhunting....It' s easy to do bb24. Take a small piece of masking tape and put it on the inside of the top riser. Write pick a spot, hold, and release....This wil may help ya on the next one!

Good luck.

bigbuck, you have to look on the bright side. Your feelings would have been a lot worse if you wounded the deer. I' d take a clean miss over a bad hit anyday of the week!!!!!

I think what you did mate is when you shot you droped your bow to see if you hit him when you shoot hold your bow in the same spot till the deer the deer is out of site

hope you know what I mean by droped you bow pull you bow down to see where you hit

YUp been there done that, think a lot of us have. Dont forget to put the right pin on the right spot. The animals look huge and the adrenalin gets to rushing. Stay calm and cool and better luck next time. Yes a clean miss is a lot better than a bad hit anyday. Good Luck next time

I feel for you, hopefully that does not happen to me on Mon. the MD opener.
