Tree stand clicking in the wind

[Al Bundy]

Last weekend in the wind my stand would make a metallic noise when the wind gusted. Wind supposed to be even stronger in the morning. Wondering if this noise would spook a deer or not. Yes under calm quiet conditions I know it would, but with the wind howling I am thinking I'm ok. The noise is the climbing sticks flexing I think. Not real loud and not prolonged, but it can be heard. Anyone think this will spook the deer??

If the stand has been up for awhile the are use to the noise

They will pay attention more to the noise after they have been shot at the last wk.

They will get use to it but i would want to fix it. A simple reset is easy and not a big deal in wind.
