Did you shoot your first deer with open sights?
My "hunting" career commenced with an air-rifle, killed many birds with that springer and its irons. Than I advanced to a 12g scuttergun hell I killed everything with that but not deer.

HOWA 270 Win Replacement - Ugh!
Sorry to hear that Sir, keep well and keep shooting. BTW the 7mm-08 is a gentle one to shoot. The most overlooked cause of perceived recoil is the LOP (length of pull) in most cases it is a little short and that amplifies the felt recoil. (y) -
