Don't let him catch wind of you. Stay calm and patient. Bring toilet paper. Good luck.
Remember to get a ways away from the stand when you use that toilet paper too.
In terms of nerves, just remember the worst thing that happens is you don't get your deer. Life goes on whether or not you bring him home.
Do NOT look at the horns ! Nothing to hit (vital there) !
Take a deep breath, and RELAX ! As mcdlacrosse9 said
"life will go on" hopefully NOT for ol' "bucky" though !
Good Luck and Good Hunting !
Keep visualizing him coming in, and you drawing your bow and making the shot.
dont look at the horms or try counting the points if you know its the deer you want to kill put the crosshairs be hind the sholder an squeeze the trigger
