A few years ago , when my mother was alive , I was hunting her property in Groveland . I saw deer traveling about 80 yards from my stand . I had a ladder stand in my trailer and set it up closer to their trail in the late morning . Shot a doe from that stand in the afternoon .
My oldest son likes to move his stands when it rains or when it might rain . He figures the rain will help wash away any scent from the stand or area .
