JW_Halverson:
I'm gonna tell you what my ex-father-in-law told me, bless his heart. 

"I'da warned you, but you wouldn't have listened."

Sorry pal, at least you got our shoulders to cry on.  Welcome to the Archer's Short Bus!

Stephen Zachary:
I agree with what everyone has said . Ive been shooting 3 d for several years and never killed anything with my bow but love going into the woods. Hoping for first bow kill this year no matter what it is.

 Looking for my first with selfbow. :) Had a real nice 8 pt. come by me at approx. 18-20 yards. Had to pass on him, because my accuracey limit is 17 yds. or closer. :-\ Just felt like it was a bit too far. I shoot 40#-45# selfbows. Thats why i won't shoot very far. The way i look at it, if God wants me to get a deer with my selfbows, i will get my deer when he is ready for me to get my first. If he is not ready for me to take one of his animals, i'm not going to get it. ;) I agree, theres nothing like carrying a selfbow in the timber. I find myself stump shooting back to where i hunt, and even coming back to the truck, after a morning hunt. I say that you are definately hooked. Go out and enjoy it.

Christian Soldier:
I am in the same boat you are, first year, no deer. I know if I had a compund I would have had to ge a new freezer by now, but where is the fun in that.  ;)

Stick to it and remememeber not to get caught up in reasults those come with time, learn now, eat later.   8)

here is my story where I came face to face with a mosnter 8 point, but unfortunately I hadn't learned that you can be to close to a deer and, well, you can read the whole story yourself here (btw I am Woodland Archer on Paleoplanet)

These guys gave me some great advice remember 2 things for now, there is no such thing as a perfect shot, and once you realize you have somthing to learn, you will learn way more.
