Describe your favorite stand site....
I was just wondering what type of spots everyone considers their favorite. Also how did you find it.
Mine is a stand out at my farm. I was just sitting around the house looking at a topo map andgot an idea.Its located in the bottom of a brushy hollow. It runs from the north side of the property and swings around to the west side. At both ends are 2 major bedding areas. The hill to the NW of me is loaded with white oaks and on top of the hill is an agricultural field. To the S, SE, and SW are little brushy "fingers" that all run out within view from my stand. Alot of bucks like to bed in these fingers. In the bottom of the hollow there is about a 50 yard stretch of real nasty brush and in the middle a 15 ft. by 15 ft. grassy field. Deer LOVE this stuff.
I found this spot 2 years ago and have killed 3 deer here with a bow (All does). I can only think of once when I hunted this stand and didnt see a buck, and that was when I had been sitting there for 15 minutes one afternoon and shot one of the does. This year I had several small bucks walk by me, but all of the bigger deer seem to go to the north of me or to the east (the grassy field in the bottom).
