new to bow hunting and i need some help
 
i am new to bow hunting and well hunting peirod this was my first season rifle hunting aswell
i had no luck during rifle season so i figured i would try bow season so my parents got me a reflex excursion for xmas

so i need help any tips or tricks for when i should hunt for the late season morning mid day or afternoon
should i stay closer to the open fields or go deep into the woods to get in the cover
the trails i set up on for rifle season were well traveled but when we lost the leaves they quit useing them so were should i go
also i am still working on getting my sights and everything on my bow so any tips on what to add to it qould be great

practice with the bow alot, i am new to bow hunting and shooting targets is very important, it is only fair to the deer that you prepare yourself to make an ethical shoot.

with bow hutning i like to set up in the woods, it provides a little better cover, but be sure to clear some shooting lanes once ur in your stand.

good luck

ditto above and don't overlook residential areas.

The most important thing is to practice. ANd when you think your good practice some more. I usually set up along the woodline of the field or right off the edge.

Good Luck
