  1. So while still hunting the last time I found a nice spot that I wanted to set up at..So I made a plan to set my portable stand up there today and had planned to leave the stand and just remove my climbing sticks,,I figured on hunting it tomorrow afternoon and maybe the weekend, as my time restraints didn't allow it today.. Anyway, I get to the spot and wouldn't you know it, two deer..I believe does, standing there maybe 30yds and didn't seem in any hurry to move. They were upwind and we had a starring contest.. After a bit they walked off..I debated on continuing with my plan of setting the stand. But figured it was obviously a good spot and they never seemed to spook..no snorting nothing. Let's hope I made the right decision. Thoughts?
  2. Thanks for the helpful replies..I think I'll be trying same day hunts with my portable stand soon,,I have the wolf climbing sticks, so it's doable to pack it in and setup without to much notice and disturbance. I've used treestands a lot in the past, but generally they were larger/and or ladder stands that were put in place weeks before season... Any thoughts on using the pop up blind? I really like that this is so easy to pack and setup in seconds..But skeptical of being able to blend it in on the ground for same day hunting, thoughts?
  3. Hi everyone, I do a lot of still hunting and moving around from area to area depending on wind/conditions etc. What is your thoughts on setting up for the same day deer watch? Is it best to just use a natural blind (tree, brush, blowdown) to blend in and wait/watch from, this is generally what I do? Or can a Pop-up blind work well for same day set-up..I am a little skeptical about this working the same day without spooking? And lastly, what about using a portable tree stand with climbing sticks, for same day/ same afternoon hunting? This would be for firearm season..Thanks for any input.
  4. Nice! congrats & enjoy the tasty venison
  5. Hi Everyone, I recently purchased a H&R Survivor in .308..Gotta say so far I'm stoked with it Easy to carry and maneuver and with my leopold scope and American Whitetail ammo, very accurate. I have others, but have chosen this is my current deer rifle. Hoping to get some action soon ;0) Anyone else have experience with these rifles? Thanks!
