The heat should have no effect on practice. Just walk out the back door, shoot a couple arrows and then walk back into the AC.

Myself, I just shoot and sweat like the decrepit old fatboy I am. [&:]

I'm fortunate to work in pro shop w/ an indoor range. Nice and cool in there, but I recognize those 20 yard paper shots aren't really enough to do it. I just utilize the cooler mornings and late evenings to shoot, and shade of course. But somedays, it's just TOO DANG HOT and I don't shoot those days unless it's indoors. Shooting w/ sweat running down my back, in my eyes, and the bugs swarming is just no fun.

Well i don`t know how many of you do it but i pretty much hunt from a tree so i like to practice like i hunt. I went up the tree for the first time this yr this past weekend 20-25ft just to take a couple of shots.
Let me tell you after climbing up i was soaked with sweat[:'(]can`t wait for cooler weather.
