I have to agree with the fellas on this one. Shoot several bows and get the one that feels best to you. Adjustable draw length would ver beneficial since you are young and your draw length is certain to change. As far as practice...one you get your bow, practice EVERY chance you get. Practice in the cold, hot, wind, snow, whatever the conditions so that you know what your limitations are and how your bow shoots accordingly. Don't worry about a treestand right now. Get the shooting/feel down first and then worry about your stand. Good luck!

hey, thanks for the help guys, i have gone on 1 gun hunting trip so i know allitle about hunting already, how about a treestand? i actually know a guy named Darry knoll who is like an olympic archer and a huge bow hunter.

thanks for the info, how about sight picture? what should i see when i draw?
