shakeing when the deer are there
 

I just love it when you see a deer even a younger deer and your heart starts pounding and you shake so hard you swear the deer are going to hear you.

as long as i live i will remember my first buck..well only buck to date...there i was , wasn' t shaking to bad...got that lung shot off, after the smoke cleared i saw legs in the air, then it happened i started shaking, the phone rang, i had to hang up and grab hold of the tree i was about to shake myself right out of the climber...litterally.....each time i shake , but that time was horriffic :D...haven' t hunted out of a climber since, lol....and i actually climbed about 15-16 foot ..i was so proud, i got that high without freaking....one day i' ll conquer this fear of hieght:D

i dont think theres much that can beat that feeling, and its hard to explain to non-hunters too just what a rush it is. Can still remember my first hunt(3 yrs ago) ended up with a lil buck, shakin soo bad i missed him 3 times and fogged up the scope

I just love that as well. Because if we didn' t feel like that we' d be dead.
Happy Hunting

last year i was rattling kind of half a$$ because it was post rut and i didnt expect anything to show up. Figures up over a ridge from a swamp walks a fork horn and stalks walking along the ridge getting further away every step so i take a shot and he runs off, because i missed, but i still couldnt stop shaking. i got buck fever, but its allright because i was only 13:)

heck......i wasnt even deer hunting today and i had a nice little buck 40 yards from me and it got my heart going....what a sight that was.....when i quit getting excited and not being able to sleep the night before a big hunt and all the other great emotional things that come with hunting im hanging the guns on the wall....i dont deserve to take an animals life....

You know what is cool also, I still get the shakes, mainly after the shot. Now that my son is huntign for the first time. I shake all over again. My son said to me as a doe approached the other night, " man you really do shake don' t you? " We never got a shot but how cool is it to have the same feelings for someone else! Your right, you can' t understand until you have lived it.
