RE: Do you ever overhunt a deer stand?
I prefer to stillhunt most of the timeor track deerwhen there is snow but I have a few different stands. I definately hunt one in particular more then the others when Im stand hunting. Its on private land relatively close (150yds) to my neighbors house rightin a funnel. I think its so good because its a funnel obviously and because of all the everyday activites going on all the time nearbythat the deer get use to. The vehicles driving down the road,my neighboroutside with his dog all the time, Human scent is around all the time, etc.I set it up5 yrs ago and I have shot two deer from it 2 yrs in a row and friends of mine have shot deer from it also, some in the same season. A total of 7 deer in all so far.So yes I overhunt this stand when I stand hunt or one of my friends does when Im not using it. I think its all about the location.
