Hey digga,
My advice is to practice, practice, practice. But practice the right way. By joining a local archery club other members or coaches can give you a bit of guidence, but be weary of people telling you the wrong thing.

Also my first few hunting expirences were by tagging along with other experienced hunters to try and learn the ropes. He was my best friend and we still hunt together whenever we can. Often two heads are better then one in many situations including planning stalks, spotting game and getting yourself unlost (not that that ever happens to me)

Bowhunting and archery can be very frustrating at the best of times[:@], so when this happens you may like to give it a rest for a few hours or untill you get your cool back[8D], otherwise you run the risk of forming bad habits with your shooting form. And trust me buddy bad habits are hard to break[:@].

Good luck and I hope I've helped some. This forum is a great way to learn how to better your bowhunting skills and I have learnt stacks from other members. You might like to be a little more specific with your questions though, cos I bet everymember could write 40 000 words on bowhunting stuff for you to know.

Catchya round da ridges mate,

P.S. I would try not to ask what bow or equipment is the best cos it will start an everlasting debate and come to no conclusions. Everyone has there personal preference.
