Make sure your rifle is on. Know your limits. Have a range finder, if not use whats around ie: that rock is 50yds, that cactus is 90. Breathe, don't rush the shot. Show up early, leave late, be quiet. Keep your eyes peeled and stay awake.
Oh, and welcome to THF!!
Good luck!

take your time, keep cool and steady. If the buck fever starts your hands shaking, take a deep breath and try again. good luck.

Focus on the shot placement, don't rush and squeeze the trigger. If it doesn't feel right, don't shoot.

Do you have your Hunters Education Card yet?
