RE: shooting from a treestand
Gotcha Jeff about the 1/3 comment. Brain ran out of steam sometime yesterday afternoon.
Tight shots are a paradox. IF you know and can put your shot exactly where it needs to go, they are just as deadly as anything. BUT shooting down at sharp angles is tough for many people and it throws off your perceived view of the vitals. It’s certainly not an easy shot to make for many.

You also need to practice hanging/attaching your quiver in a place where if a second shot opportunity arises, you will be able to quietly and with the least amount of movement, retrieve another arrow.

RE: shooting from a treestand
thanks for all the replys guys, i havnt been able to post because i have been working to much, this weekend, i am going to try these tips you guys gave me, i have shot out of my tree once, at i guess around 15 feet at 17 yards and it was just a hair high but still great shot,
P.S IS IT NORMAL TO BE ALITTLE NERVIOUS WHEN YOU GO UP IN A TREE STAND THE FIRST TIME AND SETUP????? cause i was, but after i setup and sat down i was fine, just alittle wiery about moving around.

Oh and dont forget getting used to shooting with your safety harness. They tend to get in the way sometimes![:@]
