matt01 Posted November 5, 2004 Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 i missed today on a big 12 point it had a big body probably about 220. I have never taken a deer before and this is my first year hunting. I got some buck fever and stopped him with a grunt. I shot and he turned fast. The arrow went right by his chest. he was about 25 yards away. well at least i clean missed him. he did come to the doe pee. I rattled him in and he came running in and was moving around at about 50 yards for 15 minutes. my heart was on pounding so freaking fast. it was a great expirence hope i get another one.

mainebuck Posted November 5, 2004 Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 Re: man i hate missisng exceptionaly on big bucks Part of me feels bad for ya part of me don't. I have yet to see a buck this year. Season started Sept. 11. Sounds like you're in a good area and you'll get another crack at one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huntrman Posted November 6, 2004 Report Share Posted November 6, 2004 Re: man i hate missisng exceptionaly on big bucks wow matt your story is really close to mine..last year was my 3rd year hunting and i missed a monster 9 pointer, i shot completely left of him, i was pretty much devistated, but now i'm back at it again and have taken my first deer ever this year, it was a doe, BUT it is a definite confidence booster. hang in there man, it WILL happen, its only a matter of time, don't give up and don't get discouraged. good luck.
