I am going through a similar “funk” if you will. two seasons ago I took a shot that I felt 100% confident in and at the release, I “peeked” like in golf, and the resulting shot was not good. I did not recover a wounded deer. On opening night last week, I had a doe almost in my shooting lane and I suddenly felt like i wouldn’t be able to make the shot. I thoroughly enjoy trad gear and have passed on numerous less than perfect shots since and I am still waiting to take my first trad whitetail. Having a deer in bow range, even without getting a shot, is the ultimate adrenaline rush. Anytime you don’t feel confident enough to shoot, just hang your bow up and enjoy being in the woods until the confidence comes back.:wink:
