Default Your average hourly sit on stand?

Just wondering how long you usually sit on stand for???
Depending on what I have going on that day I'd say I usually "hunt" for an average of 4 hours........what about you?

Depends,I hunt in the south with the warmer temps. During early season I can only make it about 3 hours, during the cooler temps I will tend to stay 4+ hrs. and when the weather, time of year is just right I will spend most of a day hunting.

Well, it may not sound good if I just said the number, but I would say not even two hours as I hunt after work almost everyday. On a day where I am not working it's prob more like 5 hours at a clip in the morning and then another 3 at night.

4+ but I am getting either the Summit Vipor or Razor SS this year by winning a raffle so I expect to be up there all day long now.
