i normally hunt over 9 Wildlife Management Area's alone...lol. about the only perk to my job is having 3 days off every week. so i try to get to the woods and hunt atleast 1 day a week. not to mention i scout ALL year, not just a few weeks prior to hunt'n season. yesterday i froze my rear off in a treestand for 9 hours in O.N.F. according to my trucks rear view mirror thermometer, it was 28 degrees yesterday morning.

but to clarify my given answer a little...in larger w.m.a.'s like Green Swamp, Ocala, etc. i'll have scouted more than 15 different stand locations. this is so i don't get patterned by the game animals and so i don't "stink" up the area's. everytime you hunt the same stand your chance of bagging a deer from that stand diminish due to your scent and impact on that area. there are some w.m.a.'s i hunt that aren't big enough to have that many locations OR the given hunt days are limited to only 3 day hunts. also in heavily pressured area's it's better to move around alot because the deer are constantly changing their patterns in compensation for the added pressure being placed on them. in another words, just because i patterned the deer all summer in one spot....doesn't mean they will continue that pattern throughout the entire hunt'n season.
