    My season starts this Saturday and i was wondering if anyone had words of wisdom for me on my first time out hunting with a recurve. This will be my first time taking a deer with a bow!

    Take the distance you are very comfortable hitting a 3" circle in practice, divide it in half on a live animal in a hunting situation and have fun.

    I really want to try and stalk a deer but i don't know how to do it effectively plus 15 yards seems awfully close to try to stalk to
