I missed three deer last year in less than 24 hours. Found out my pins got screwed up on the drive to my old man's. Now I always double check to tighten all the bolts on the bow. There's always something to gain from a miss, plus it just means you get to keep hunting!

My son does not like the hunting part as much as he likes the tracking.  Give him a blood trail to follow and he's loving it (ironically, my wife's least favorite part).  I reminded him you need to shoot them first though....   :chuckle:
