As every one has said try to minimize your movement and mve when the deer are distracted or looking in an opposite direction. I'm 17 and this is also my first year bowhunting. I've been hunting in a camp chair on the ground and have had plenty of oppurtunities. I shot my first doe at thirty yards and when I went to track her I had a button buck walking through the woods so I just stood there in plain sight as still as I could and he walked up to about ten yards then turned and went on his way. I also had a fork at five yards this year while I was sitting on the fence line and he had no clue I was there until he caught my scent line. As long as you keep your movement to a minimum and have a good wind you'll be fine. Good luck for the rest of the season
