Default RE: Move Stand???

Well, if it were me, I might put up a different stand at the new spot and leave the one where it is. Especially if the second stand could be set up for a different wind, giving you additional options. If you only have one stand you should try to get one or two more because otherwise you will burn out a location quickly. Even if you don’t spook the deer they will get your lingering scent and start avoiding the area.

Something else to consider; If there are lots of rubs and you’re seeing daytime activity, it may be that you found a bucks bedding area. Putting a stand in there could be productive but highly risky. If you can you get in and out of the area without being detected you may get a shot. Just don’t hunt the stand if the wind isn’t perfect…

Good Luck!
