BowmanMike Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 ok,here are some views from some of my stands. Almost done setting all of them up. Both stands are at the edge of a hayfield,the one is 15 yds in the other only about 5 yds. I have high hopes for both of them,good for bow and gun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growalot Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 Nice ! Ss that golden rod to the right along the field? I bet they'll just funnel out of that in the afternoon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowmanMike Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 You are not wrong,growalot.There is a swamp further to the right,all in all a pretty good spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

growalot Posted September 6, 2016 Author Share Posted September 6, 2016 (edited) I had to cut a few limbs...Yes close to building and equipment but they hung here before I started working the ground.So I built a stand ...great for bow, gun and rifle...They cross road and jump the old pasture fence and come in from the other side under the 3 dropping apples behind the stand and funnel up one side through the clover and past 2 apples(none this year) and the other side that has 4 dropping apples... then hang in the garden once I open the gate for clover and left overs.. This is an easy stand to get into even if they are bedded right there or out feeding in the field. Also a transition from feeding to bedding in the mornings.

Closing in a week or two and thinking about hanging a stand back in this mess! If you zoom in towards the back of the picture thinking about putting one 15 yards or so off the stream back in the woods Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growalot Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 Chef that looks like a nice Oxbowl in that stream...We use to hunt an Oxbowl on the Genessee River and they are a great place for connecting with all game...it slows the current making it a really good watering area...are those prints in the sand bank? Good luck... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

growalot Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 Nice, squirrel...is that a ridge line? I can't quite make out the leafs...they look a lot like my persimmon leafs..is that a wild blk cherry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squirrel slayer Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Yes on cherry. No on ridge. Just a trail I cut through the woods that deer began using more. Lol. They will be crossing about 50 yards up from what can be seen here. And the trail comes don hill to about 30 yards from stand. Then drops down into some really thick brush that is loaded with rubs. Wife has a stand I made about 200 yards from this spot down in a draw. Think both will produce this year and hope to hear her .270 ring first so she can bag her first deer.

Buckmaster7600 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 This is the stand that's about 50yds out my back door it's on the edge of our sanctuary and has corn to the right and oaks that are loaded with nuts to the left. In front of my is a 25acre swamp and a hardwood hill that's another 18-20acres neither of these get hunted at all until the last weekend of season. This stand has been hunted 3 times in the last 5 years and 2 does and an 8 were killed.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growalot Posted September 15, 2016 Author Share Posted September 15, 2016 Nice I have a stand like that It catches the deer coming out of my woods to where they would feed in the old hay field...That is corn now and a waste land by hunting season due to cutting and manure spray...they are using it now because the corn is still up...If they do not cut as usual before opener it will be a morning /evening stand(that's when the dogs bark the most) and I'll try to connect with the 10pt I saw this summer..Ohh that just gave me an idea...

Rebel Darling Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Stand no. 1A four-point walked through this morning, and it looks like the does are bedding at the stand base around sunrise and wandering through not long after.I'm all thumbs when using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Darling Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Stand no. 2 Looks out to a scrape and licking branch. Haven't checked the card yet, but it's time to drop a little buck urine and kick up some dirt. The mesh seat is ripped from a fallen branch. It's holding up, but I'm a little nervous about it.I'm all thumbs when using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
