Default RE: Sitting or Standing?

my question is how do you guys feel about shooting out of a deer blind, this weekend will be the first time hunting out of one, and i'm exited, because i can slightly move around, i just put a bail of hay in there to sit on, whos got experience shooting out of these things?
PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE!!!! I missed a chance at the biggest buck of my life last year because I didn't take practice shots from my ground blind. I was in one of those doghouse tent style blinds. A huge 9 point was 25 yards broadside. When I drew, the tip of my arrow brushed the side of the blind and he bolted. I wanted to vomit I was so disgusted with myself for not practicing and ensuring I had enough clearance to draw my bow.

Also, if you plan on shooting through mesh windows you'd better practice that too.
