Great story Mike. Bow hunting can be very frustrating, but also very rewarding. It also takes a ton of practice before hunting season to ensure that you can make the shot. If I missed the kind of bucks you were talking about, I would be sick for a while too.
I haven't bow hunted in a couple of years now, but I can tell you that the last time I did my heart was pounding. I had 10+ deer right under my stand. Haven't had my heart pound like that while hunting in a long time. I had to wait until they decided to clear out before I could raise my bow and get a shot off at the last one in the procession.
