Coping with a miss...
Soo I missed the biggest buck I've ever seen this morning... I don't know how but it happened. I was just wondering what everyone else's does in this situation. I flipped out and started kick stuff lol

Did you hit him at all or totally miss? I would maybe like to try hunting but my biggest fear is to injure an animal. I would feel very bad if I inflicted serious pain on anything......human or animal. If I knew I could shoot it and it would drop, I'd hunt. I know I'm not that good a shot.

I've had my share of misses as well. It really puts your spirits down.

Bow or firearm?

I could make a list of a bunch of guns i have, or "have", or wish I had. Why would one feel compelled to provide that infornation freely? Do you feel the need to show off? Is it some immature game of oneupsmanship?
Why do you feel it necessary to list your guns?

I got that out of my system when I was 13. Think I missed three that year before getting my first deer.
