I think you're on the right track. Shoot a lot. Do you have a range finder? If so, practice by not just shooting at 20, 30, 40....but also the random ranges. Just walk around your yard and guess the range, then range, then shoot. I do this for elk hunting. You'll have a 9 yard shot, then maybe a 23 yard shot, 37 yard shot, etc...Definitely try shooting from an elevation. I like a deer target, as opposed to a block target. It simulates exactly what you will be hunting, you can practice at different angles, etc....Just my experience, but when I used to just shoot block targets, when pulling back on a live deer, they just seemed so much smaller and not what I expected while practicing. I typically shoot a block just getting my form down starting in June - once that is down, I'll move to a deer target for fine-tuning and eye adjustment to a deer
