2) Practice.
3) Practice some more
As far as Virginia hunting areas, check out the VDGIF site and look at Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs). C. F. Phelps is between Culpeper and Warrenton, and Amelia is not too far southwest of Richmond. There are a bunch of other ones listed on the site - check them out.
Good luck!
