[QUOTE="shootermcgavin, post: 1908901, member: 4527"] This is my first true bow season, though I've hunted rifle a few times and black powder last year. I've killed 4 deer so far, but hope to make it 11 by the end of the year. I don't have much advice other than what I've been told and that is practice, practice, practice. And practice from your stand if you can, and practice sitting in your stand to shoot because often you aren't able to stand up and take a shot as the deer are too on edge. Also it sounds like it won't be an issue with your stand, but one thing I didn't think about when I initially put my stand up was angling it. Particularly sitting down you can't shoot comfortable and solidly much past straight forward, so angle your stand off to the right (if you're right handed) so you have a better angle at shooting in the areas you want.
