Default RE: tree stand shooting

ORIGINAL: G_O_N

when you shoot your bow and you adjust your sight on the ground, is there a difference from when you shoot it from the tree stand? do you aim higher?
There is a difference in "Point of impact" from the ground to 20 feet up a tree.

For my bow @ 260FPS the difference is about 1 1/2" @ 27 yds.

Seems to me the actual difference - line of sight distance is some where around 2.5 yds. @ 30 yds.

I myself don't think it makes that much difference in real world hunting situations,BUT, if you know about it you might as well adjust your sights for it.

IMHO
