Do you guys ever doubt the decisions you make when choosing a spot,,,? Thats where most of the difficulty comes into play for me..I'm always unsure .

The best part of Bowhunting is the never ending battle of trying to figure the animal out. Don't be afraid to fail, failure is the best teacher.

I taught myself, and when I did I didn't have many years of hunting under my belt so as Peak said it was a lot of trial and error, with an emphasis on the errors. Over time though things started to click and when they did I started seeing some consistent success.
Stick with it, try new things, and don't be afraid of making a bad decision. It's not the end of the world and those are the best lessons. Most of all spend as much time as you can learning your spots.

With the exception of my friends..I've taught myself pretty much everything
EDIT: HNI has taught me more than anything else..I cant begin to tell you how much I have learned from this place and it has only deepened my passion

I was lucky being I was brought up in a bow hunting family. My dad and mom both have shot many animals with a bow so I am pretty darn lucky in that regard! Like others have said expierence is the best teacher by far!! Learn from your mishaps and try and correct them for the next time. Motown said it pretty well, it can make you or break you. What you put into bow hunting is what you will get out of it. I wish you all the luck.

read, ask questions, and don't be afraid to try something that is how you are going to learn, it will take time to develop instincts and the more things you try the more you will develop
