Default Shooting from a treestand

How does shooting from a treestand, lets say 15 ft up, affect shooting a bow? I' m new to hunting and even newer to archery, so any tips would be helpful

Bow hunting is all I do.Shooting from a tree will become like shooting from the ground before long. Actually I' d rather shoot from a tree. I set my bow up from the tree because 99% of my shots are taken from here. I shoot a pendulum sight because I hunt from a tree alot. But dont worry its good on the ground with no adjustments also. You might like to give one a try. I recommend the Savage line of sights their tough and dependable. Shoot straight.

Practice,practice,practice. Its the best way to learn it. What I can tell you is also to practice shots nearly below you. You must keep your upper body straight like shooting on the ground, and bend at the waist. Don' t lean forward trying to get that downward angle. Just bend you upper body at the waist. Its easy once you do it several times.
