Lots of great advice above. Good Luck to you in your bowhunting.

I like to make my practice as close to the "real" thing as possible. I shoot 1 arrow at a time, there are rarely ever second shots on a deer or elk and I am not a 3-d competition shooter, therefore, I like focusing on quality over quantity in shot practice. Everytime I shoot I visualize a real buck making his way to me for a shot. Often I hold at full draw for a minute, then shoot. I wear the same clothing as I wear when in the field, especially my liner face mask and my liner gloves. I shoot from the ground and a tree since I hunt natural ground blinds, pop-up blinds and stands. I try to shoot a lot at low light. I move my 3-d targets all around and shoot at many different angles as well. My cousin and I will will play a game sometimes. We each get one shot to kill the animal. We play it like "Horse" on the basketball court. No second chances.

Lastly I never end on a poor shot. I make sure my last shot of the session is a clean kill shot.

Good Hunting!
