Your clothes should fit you well and not be baggy, but they shouldn't be so tight it makes it hard for you to shoot your bow. I have payed the price for not drawing my bow after getting dressed. I had one of the biggest deer i've ever seen 20 yards from me broadside. It was 20 degrees, between that and my shirt being tucked in, I struggled to get the bow back. He gave me the flag. Ever since then i've learned to turn my bow down light so that i can pull it back without any more movement than necessary. I hunted the next year with it set at 54 lbs. Make sure you shoot your bow fully dressed for hunting. It makes a big difference in drawing, and a facemask and gloves make shooting different.
