Tips on Landing on the Mün

[Internet_Man]

I have landed on the Mun before but I want better ways on Landing there.

Anyone got any tips?
Thanks.

Did you land intact and were you then able to return? If so, there is no room for improvement.

The only way to improve is to crash there intentionally and then send a rescue mission, only for it to crash unintentionally, and send more rescue missions, until the Kermans run out, and the Science is done!

Without knowing much about what you did before... 

Practice is the real key, there is a reason why real pilots spend hours in simulators going through multiple scenarios.

 Different vessel designs may need different 'tactics' depending on TWR, and their shape (tall and thin = unstable, short and wide = much safer).

A high TWR design can be a lot more forgiving if you come in a bit quick or need to adjust things last minute, but can also be a bit 'twitchy' if you get heavy handed with the throttle.

Create  a few different designs, you don't need anything complex,  and use the Alt F12 'Set Orbit' feature to try things out.

Also, consider using a mod like 'Trajectories', it can help enormously with landing closer to where you want to.

Did you do munar orbit rendezvous?

Did you make your mun mission fully recoverable/ reusable?

I found these threads quite helpful back in the day.

Get in a nice orbit that nearly grazes the surface, and do your landing in one nice continuous burn as you approach that periapsis. That's the most fuel-efficient way to do it, as I understand.
