practice,practice,practice and about treestand question treestands are not for everyone i hunt out groundblind or build my own out of natural cover.yes as he said i would shoot 10 yrds get form and groups then move back 20 yrds after feel comfortable at that range. i've only shot 1 deer over 20 yrds last 1 shot on ground in open swamp 7 pointer at 8 yrds. so enjoy bow shootin.
