Going to Pro Shop in the morning and then I will be ready to start shooting
 
Doubt I will be ready in time for season though. Went over to my great uncles house that bow hunts alot and he gave me a few stuff. Gave me a new stabelizer, bunch of broadheads, and some Arrows. Going to the pro shop tommrow to get them to install my peep site, add a string loop, and add some cloth around the string. And have them to fix a few arrows of mine. (New fletching, inserts, etc). After that when I get back home I am going straight to shoot it. Never shot this bow before. In fact it has never been shot Period!:D Thought I would let ya all know:)

There is no doubt in my mind you will be ready for the season. As stated before go to the shop and ask for help. they will be more than happy to help you. Archery is a game of trial and error, some of the equiptment he gave you might not fit you including the bow. Be patient with yourself and good things will follow.

Opinions on this type of issue vary greatly. Personally, I think that if you practice enough over the next month then I see no reason you should not be able to use it August 4th. There is a distinct difference between someone that buys a bow now, shoots it once and then expects to go hunting in a month and the scenario I originally mentioned.

Practice...practice...practice and become proficient at your self imposed distance limit. Then don't shoot beyond it when hunting.

Good luck.
