Welcome to the site thats awesome to take up bowhunting first. Becoming a bowhunter first usually makes gun hunting a bit easier. My only two words of advice are: 1.Practice and 2.Don't get Discouraged. #2 was hard for me to overcome when I first started. Welcome to the site!

As they said before, be patient and practice! Welcome to the site & best of luck when you get out there. I didn't see any deer for about 15 trips, then I missed the first one I saw......2 weeks later he came by me again at 8 yards & he ended up on my wall.
GOOD LUCK & WELCOME!

I became interested in hunting because of my friends influence!!!! I started shooting a bow and realy enjoyed it so I tried hunting twice last year and found it very exciting!!!! The first time I was in the woods I did not see anything but realy enjoyed just being out there! The second time that I went I saw 4 does two of which were right below my tree stand!! I did not take a shot because I found the moment facinating just knowing that these deer never knew I was there! I have always had a love for the outdoors but have always worked too much to enjoy it! In 2005 I purchased two Polaris atv's. I started riding so much that in 2006 I purchased two more for the rest of the family! Once I started to ride more in the woods I started to become more interested in hunting! I realy started to shoot my bow alot when on Dec. 10 2006 I shot a double robinhood in my basement at 20 yards!!!!!!! I took pics of it and showed them to some friends at the Bay Pro Shop on 260 and rt4. Ever since then I'm HOOKED!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dec. 10 was alot of luck but it happened!!!! Hey, I must go now but will be back soon to talk. Thanks for responding to my first message!!!
