huntman,

Stay put as long as you and your friend are seeing deer. You might consider placing your stand in a tree nearby that has some cover since the deer seem to spot you in that particular tree. If that isnt possible, cut you some evergrren branches to hang onto your stand for some cover. Try to place your stand to where you can draw and shoot sitting down if possible. This might eliminate some movement necessary for a good shot.

Just my opinion...
