Hey Tyler,
Welcome aboard! My idea(s) for you would be to practice a lot, be patient and enjoy it!

Practice a lot with your bow. If I could give you just one strategy on where to set up to hunt it would be breaklines. Make it easy on yourself and set up where two different types of cover come together, like where thick pines run into the open hardwoods. Hunt inside and outside of those cover breaks. Don't get real fancy and just enjoy yourself!
