    Good luck to you Gyle! Hang in there it will happen. What state are you in with the .308? Just curious.

    Thanks for all the congrats guys. Hoping to get another this year!

    If you're anything like me, good luck with that. :D I've been killing deer for 18 years and my heart still gets pumping hard when one walks in. I don't get the shakes quite as bad as I used to, but I still get the shakes a bit.

    I'd say this is probably very true. I still remember my first deer with a shotgun and that was in 1993. I remember where I was hunting, the area I was sitting, the angle he walked, where he ran and where he fell, loading him into the trunk of the car...I remember it all. Also remember vivid details of my first deer with a muzzleloader in 2003 such as watching the snowflakes drift from right next to my face all the way down to his nose. Yep, he got wind of me, but didn't leave fast enough. Pretty sure I'll remember my first deer with a bow, too.

    Mine was only a spike and I was going nuts! Excellent shot by the way, congrats!
