Good Luck jbv, This will be my 4th year of bowhunting and I've been lucky enough to of gotten at least 1 deer each of my 3 previous years...but it's been a learning process along the way. You'll do just fine, keep the wind in your face and the sun at your back...practice good scent control, and set up between where they bed and their food source, and you'll be "putting em down" before you know it. Once again, Good Luck -- Van
