Fix Hood Dent Myself??

My car has a dent in the hood. Now the car but does not shut properly. I want to fix my hood but I do not know how to do it. My question is, is it worth my time to do the body work on my hood or should I just buy a new hood. I know how to fix dents by myself. I use body filler and I just sent it tell it feels straight.

I asked my friend that is an auto body technician and he said it depends the style of the hood. He said if the hood is very round that it will be a lot harder for me to do myself. I personally feel that I can do it myself but he underestimate me. But I’m sure I should take his advice since he does it as a career. I have an air compressor and all auto body tools a person needs to fix it.

Maybe some of your guises o pinion well help me make my decision. Should I buy a new good. Or should I attempt to fix my other good.
