The best tip I can give you is to become proficient with your bow before taking it to the woods. Practice on a daily basis if you can. Practice the way you will hunt whether it be from a treestand, groundblind, sitting ,standing, etc. Get to know your equipment so you know how it and you will react in most any given situation. When you do get out there be careful and have fun. Don't take a shot you are not sure of. If in doubt wait it out.
