I highly doubt quitting is the right way to go. And yes it will take hours to go in circles to find that deer but you owe it to the animal to put the effort in. I'm a highschooler too and I've been bow hunting since I was 13. The best thing that I get out of hunting is sitting in the woods by myself and reading my bible. It's priceless. You need to realize that hunting isn't always about killing but about the experience, and bowhunting provides that. I train most of summer to harvest an animal and that doesn't always happen, and thats ok. That being said, it's your responsibility to put in the effort to find that deer. 3 years ago I helped my dad track and elk for miles. We would go 150 yards with no blood. Move in circles. For next year, I'd recommend you take your bow to a shop and increase the poundage. State minimum is 40 I believe but I'd recommend about 50 or 60. If you can't pull that workout in the off season and work out your triceps and deltoids. Grab some new arrows and grab some good broadheads and some field tips. I saw the work you put in this year with your plots and stuff. You're getting the deer to cone in. Have confidence and go get em again next year! Good luck m8. If you need anything or any specific tips feel free to pm me.

yeah no and I know your a kid but no you need to at least put in some extra effort to try and find that deer. But yeah it is 40lb minimum draw that is. if you can get some of your other friends to help may be a good op to get other's interested in hunting.

This hunter is 14 years old.  That is quite the man to already be providing meat for his family!

Jeremy, PM me your address if you feel comfortable with that. If you're not, send it to one of the mods like Jackelope and I'll work it though him.

Let's get this kid outfitted for next year, I'd say he earned it. I'm in for some RAD broadheads.
