Have a rung let loose at 20 feet when you are climbing down isn't something you want to repeat.

Now as far as walking around vs sitting around, a nice stand does have its positives. Especially when you have good company and they are acting as an extra set of eyes. However, in this case, it was Squirrels, and there were more than a few. Some were even trying to get inside. Scratch, scratch, scratch. Then when he could see them on the other side of the window was really funny. A lot of whining was going on, but the Deer still showed up. Maybe it was curious in WTH was going on.

Then there used to be this one. On 1200 acres that eventually was sold and became posted. Chilly sit on a late winter evening. But the number of Deer that have been killed out of it? Well if it could tell stories it would take awhile.

And some of the people who have stands spend a lot of time, money and effort to make them productive.


Finding one while roaming around in here is always nice as long as the knees and back are holding up. That's a hot corner in this pic.
