Best tip I can give to all beginners; Patience. Along that line, do not get discouraged. Discouragement is not quite as bad as it use to be. With most of today’s compounds, it is pretty easy to become proficient in a short amount of time. Your shot will be good, so go through your form in your head while drawing on the animal. Watch the animals eyes and don’t move when you see his eyes. And most important, pick a spot on the animal and aim at it. Tuft of hair, crease in a muscle, ect.. Most first timers will shot at an area and miss, or worse off, gut shoot the animal. Patience is the key to all those aspects.
