squirrelwhisperer Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 I have to work tomorrow I am leaving at noon to scout a spot I just found apporx 5 minutes away. Go find a travel route, pick/mark a tree, and return next time I have to work on a Saturday with my climber. When I have a more working knowledge of the area, I may hang a stand to make getting in easier, faster, less sweaty. I see an amazing amount of deer on my way in, in the am. I have passed this spot on my way in and again back home every day since I found it (9/30). Have yet to see anyone near it!! Unfortunately it is public land, but 98% of the hunters around here have private to go to. Fingers crossed! Sunday I will hit the "high" stand near my house. Last year in November, I saw much activity in that area. All I kept thinking was I need to be over there!!! After reading today's posts, I shoulda moved! Well, there is very little in the way of density there so I hung a stand 33ft +/- up for better cover. Probably gonna do a lot of tree surfing in that stand lol.

That is some serious shot angle unless you are on a hillside. I’ve been in a few of those stands earlier in my life - hard pass now lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpStateRedNeck Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Sitting in the kill plot, didn't do so hot this year. Just some rye and turnips in it. Really light breeze right here, milkweed isn't traveling very far. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turkeyfeathers Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 I’m up. Evening watch. I’ll only “ send it “ on one after other nights sighting. Winds freaking perfect , deployed 2 cams . 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phade Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 (edited) In. Partner is in the real kill stand tonight. On the left side of the image up about 100 yards from me. I’m covering one interior trail and one lane exiting the plot heading to beans and greens. Plus I can get down and have enough cover to blow the deer out of this plot without giving his stand up.
