Will you be hunting from a tree or the ground?  Either way, deer see movement. Everything else is seen in shades of gray. Keep the wind in your face. On the ground and in a tree, good background cover is the most important.
 Also, don't shoot at the deer, pick a hair and split it!!!   Aim small, miss small.

I'll be in a climber, there is tons of jogging trails all throughout the different properties. So the deer are used to humans. They get hit on city streets and tear up people's houses. I get to bow hunt from January 11-31st as well. I love the cold. So i plenty of time to take a deer

Best of luck w/ weather.  Is rainin' & rainin' & rainin' here.

My best piece of advice to get a shot at a deer is to get your butt in a stand every time you can. The more you go the better your odds, I somehow beat them every year. My second piece of advice would be to choose your shots VERY wisely. Don't forget what you have in your hand in the heat of the moment when crucial decisions need to be made. Its easy to have compound or gun brain take over when all your mind can think of is getting that deer your eyes see.

Take your first good shot, also. Lots of tags go unfilled waiting for that perfect shot. 
 Aim a little low. Deer drop down before going forward when startled.
