Patience, patience, patience...you're entering a waiting game that requires some self-discipline to be successful.

IMHO - Waiting for the right shot angle, and the right time to draw is probably the hardest mental skill to learn with a bow.

The broadhead has to cut enough blood circulation vessels to take the animal down quickly, and you can't cover a poor hit with a second shot, the first shot has to be the killing one.

Ranging - as soon as you can in the stand - range several fixed points around you, and get an idea of how far out an animal may be.

You need two hands to run the bow, and a third hand to range...knowing the distance before hand will take some of the pressure off of trying to figure it out when the animal is in front of you.

Shooting arrows for groups will tell you where the bow is shooting, and get you dialed in, but you need to be shooting single arrows at different ranges to see where you are shooting with no warm up.

I agree with the comment above, stay out of the bedroom, and hunt the routes in an out of the feeding areas.

Broadheads riding in the quiver, the vibrating, the removal - will cause them to dull over time - check them regularly for sharpness.

Get a couple of "stump" arrows - blunt tips or small game head - and shoot an arrow before you come down from the stand. Pick a leaf on the ground, a rotten stump, - and see how close you can hit - without ranging it first. This will help you get used to bow shooting from an elevated platform, which is different than being on the ground - and it will show you how stiff you can get from sitting for a period of time, especially if it's cold.

What is your draw poundage?

Some younger hunters ( I was one) tend to want to be "over-bowed" for what they are hunting. You're a rifle hunter - .270 vs .300 WM discussion - on whitetails...50 pounds of draw will kill as well as 70 pounds draw, for most hunters.
