I have 10 bow stands and 4 gun stands on 180 acres. I will try to hunt them all during the season. I have my favorites, but like you say it's not a good idea to hunt the same stand over and over. Just remember, you are still going to get busted from time to time. Most of the time we don't even know we were busted. That's just deer hunting. Practice scent control to the detail. It will make a big difference. I go all out on scent control.
