Patience and learning that you don't have to shoot a deer to have a successful hunt. Just enjoy the time in the woods.

Bowhunting has made me realize that I very much want to retire,...........NOW!

Since I've been into bowhunting these past two years, I've learned that I don't have time for work.

I don't know about anybody else, but if I put in a lot of time, effort, early mornings, cold, days, wet days and I return home empty handed, I get kind of cranky. Sometimes I wanna quit and sell my bow to the first gypsie that walks down the road. But on the flip side of the coin PikeTipper, you're right. The days you don't get one, are the days you really learn what went wrong. You learn, you move your stand, and just when you're ready to give up, you get to make one leak!

I learned how to relax and watch nature, not necessarily to kill a deer every time I go out. I think that the 1/16th Cherokee Indian I have In me may have sparked the whole Experience.

I've learned if you make something, paint it camo and market it as a surefire way to a trophy buck -whether it works or not- SOMEBODY will buy it and swear they couldn't hunt without it.;)

Bowhunting has taught me many things, some of which were covered by Mikey S. on the first page.;) But mostly, I've learned that just being there is what makes it so special. I've learned that there's nothing more relaxing than sitting in my stand on a cool clear morning watching wildlife go through their daily routine. To me, taking a deer home with me is an added bonus.

I learned the life needs of many different animals of the Rocky Mountains. I've learned the plant life at many elevations. I have learned by watching others that all the new high tech junk on a bow gets in the way up here and because of that, I am out hunting while they are back at camp retuning. I have learned that a range finder doesn't shoot arrows well when a bull comes in quick! Seriously I learned that practice not gadgets make the bowhunter good.
