I'm nowhere near a good shooter. But even on my worse day with my compound bow, is still better on my good days with my recurve.
As opening day got near. I was developing real anxiety about my decision about only trad this season. Made the mistake of taking my compound out yesterday to make sure it still in tune after 6 months in storage. At 40 yards l was grouping baseball size. I forgot how much fun and confident it gave me. Even to this morning, l was close to putting the compound bow in the truck 'just in case'.
But as I'm in the tree now. All of the possible scenarios of wishing l had my compound bow run uncontrollable in my head.
I keep telling myself you knew what to expect. You know the stories of other letting lifetime bucks walk away at 30 yards. But to be in a situation that it can happens to me, just the realization of it kind of punch me in the face right about now.
Going to try to calm down in the dark as l wait for daylight. Hoping l find peace or make peace with myself before a deer show up.
