Always! My dad told me once that if that feeling goes away its time to quit. I believe him

Afterwards only if I look to see it's a shooter then I don't look again and start to zero in on the vitals...aim small, miss small!

I got it bad last night. I thought I was never going to get on target. Had to tell myself to settle down and get the job done.

Yes, but I cheated, I used a 150 grain bullet from 270 plus yards. That is why I didn't say anything the first time, but since you asked.

Initially the scope was shaking so much that I couldn't keep it on the deer. But at that distance it doesn't take much movement.

always. i just look one time to see if it is a shooter and if it is big i never look back up at his head gear. heck half the time i couldnt even tell you how many points they have when i shoot because if i started to just sit there and count i might as well not even pull up my bow because the shot will have a good chance on being off. but if i ever lost that feeling i would quit and find something else that would get me that rush and i hope that day never comes.
