that's part of hunting buddy stay at it . Aim lower better to miss low . I stuck a cow once inthe same spot , I saw her a week later with the herd little dirty mark in the same spot acting no worse for the wear .
My wife told me that I hunt way more than I did when we first got married. I said yeah I know isn't it great !

I heard two bugles in two days,  with these cooler temps I think next weekend will be alot better
I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

Good job, RT.  Hunting is a lot more hiking than shooting, isn't it?

That was a great read! Sounds like you had a blast, sorry you didn't bring him home though.

Seeing yourself in the bull's eye is incredible.  You are correct about putting the gun down; I can't ever see going back.  Keep at it and have lots more fun.
