Hey Mauser, I love all day sits during the rut. This time of year you can see some midday activity, but it normally occurs in thicker cover. The only drawback to an all day sit, especially in early season, is changing wind direction. If the wind starts blowing into a bedding area, I'm outa there in a hurry. Just make up your mind you ARE going to sit all day and it's not bad. Take a pack with food, water, a pee bag and you're set. In early season,in midday I'll slide the lanyard on my harness up the tree until it's snug whenI sit down and take a snooze if I'm tired. I wake up at every crunch, so I'm not worried about missing anything.
