I have 10 to 12 permanent stand I use to hunt from. I try not to over use any one stand but at different times of the year, certain stands are hotter than others.
It is tempting to go to that stand time and time again, but you have to give it a break. I am very carefull going to and from my stands. If I bust a deer heading to a stand I may not attempt to hunt from that stand for a week and will try a different approach.
