Don't worry.... your not alone there. I'm still trying to get my first.
I would have had one tonight if I wasn't so STUPID. I went out early around 2pm and sat in the blind until just after 5. I saw nothing the entire time. Heard nothing the entire time.... so I decided to get up and walk around the small swamp area and check the tall grass clearing before it got to late to shoot. I step out of the blind and got about 3 steps when ......you guessed it.....I saw the three white tails (one with horns) boucing back into the swamp. They were a mere 40 yards away from me. Just on the edge about to come out. Had I just waited in the blind another 5 minutes they would have walked out right on top of me.
I have to admit... I said just a few 4 letter words standing there in the tall grass.
I tell you one thing though... those were some quiet deer. Never heard anything. The leaves and grass are all frozen around the edge and sound like firecrackers under my feet.
