"....怎么样?" is equivalent to "How is/are...?" This commonly-used sentence structure can be used to make a general question or give a suggestion.
eg. [jīn tiān tiān qì zěn me yàng a]   今天天气怎么样啊? (How is the weather?)
      [nǐ zěn me yàng]  你怎么样? (How are you?)
      [zhōu mò jiàn miàn zěn me yàng a]  周末见面怎么样啊? (How about meeting this weekend?)

"高手", literally meaning "tall hand", refers to people who excel at certain things or are professional in a specific field. eg. 舞蹈高手(dancing expert); 象棋高手(master chess player). " In Chinese, there are other "手", referring to different kinds of people.
eg. [xīn shǒu] 新手 (People who have just started doing something new and lack experience.)
     [lǎo shǒu] 老手 (People who have spent a long time doing something.)
     [duō miàn shǒu] 多面手(all round, versatile people)
     [duò shǒu ] 舵手 (steersmen on ships)
     [qiāng shǒu ] 枪手 (gunmen)

The Chinese phrase "初生牛犊不怕虎(chū shēng niú dú bú pà hǔ )" means "newborn calves aren’t afraid of tigers,” describing how young people are fearless, unaware of danger, sometimes acting rashly because of their lack of experience. It can refer to wild arrogance and the overrating one’s own abilities. However, the expression is mainly used to praise one’s courage.
