maybe you should try staying longer in the tree . you are averaging 2.75 hours per hunt . i need an hour just to get settled and comfortable when i get on stand . try it longer and see if it makes a difference. any way i feel your pain sometimes you go for long periods without getting one

That's exactly how long I saw the buck I killed this year. He showed up at 5:10PM after I had been in that stand since 11:00AMthat morning. I had been in a different stand from 5:30AM till 10:30AM when 2 quail hunters and their dog walked thru my ditch.
