[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 2950718, member: 63925"] Develop a shooting mental checklist for each shot. Range, hold, adjust scope, verify, pick an actual spot (that's not on antlers), IGNORE antlers but watching head is good for deer behavior, try to find something on spot to increase focus, squeeze etc. Keep mind busy on a defined shot checklist to eliminate the "look at that rack shakes"! My shakes after the shot are ridiculous. My voice sounds like a 12 yr old. Like stated, IF this ever stops, I hope its because I am in ground. I killed my biggest buck couple years back that I told my son it was a shooter since I never really tried to guess how big he was. It wasn't ground shrinkage but holy cow way bigger than first thought. You know its a shooter when you see them, so for me its get shot off versus admiring before its on the ground. I find this mental checklist works even better with bow! [/QUOTE]
