Thanks to all of you for the advice. I do already have a climber so I think that will be the route that I take for the first few times out then I will see what locations seem to work out the best and then possibly hang a stand in the area I like the most. I guess that is one nice thing about nebraska's bow season starting 15 sep and going until 31 dec!!! But again thanks to all of you for the help it is greatly appreciated, and it is my pleasure to serve for our great country, it is people like you guys that make it worth it!!! and AF hunter I live in nebraska and I am a SD resident
