Almost everyone has had buck fever at some point. I had hell getting my first deer with a bow. I would be so excited, because deer were so close. With a bow you have to hold the pin on the target until arrow hits the target. I'm sure lots of guys jerk the trigger, because they are scared of recoil. I do best when I talk myself through the shot. I missed a giant bobcat two years ago cause I was excited. Hit right under him. It wouldn't be safe to wander around to hunt on the two leases I have. You can during the week. No way on the weekends.
