8 years and hopefully many to come...

This was my first year with a bow.

27 years.

The upcoming season will be my 11th.

Over 30 years...When I started the deer supposedly didn't look up. Although I have enjoyed successes, along the way I think I have made every mistake there is to make.

Antler Eater:

I'll match your mistakes and raise you a few hundred! I probably learned more from mistakes than anything else.

Seriously for 15years.
I carried a bow in the woods for a couple years before that, although I had no idea what I was doing. [8D]

C903, so true, so true.

If a guy can keep from making the same mistake twice, he will be a cut above the rest. It is the ones you DON'T know your making that hinder progress.

Approximately 20 years.
