Definately stay downwind.
Everything else is personal perogitive. #9 about the having gun shouldered is a bit ifffy. Having it shouldered for awhile tends to get a bit heavy (especially for those with heavy barreled setups with bipods and monster scopes hanging off).
I personally have been still hunting with no scent blocker wearing solid orange and old spice deodrant and had deer walk right past me to where I could have whacked them on the rump with my bow. As long as you stay still and down wind and don't stink too much you will be ok.
Newbies can do all the silly stuff, but scouting at all times of the day helps the most to be in the right place at the right time. last few times I have gone out was wearing blue jeans, normal work boots and a blaze orange hat and vest and because I had prescouted the areas I knew when the deer would be where I was and I bagged nice bucks each time at anywhere from 25 to 80 yds with rifle and blak powder.
Happy hunting.!!!
