RE: Standing vs. sitting
if the deer is pretty close to your tree,or off to one side or the other it can present problems for a seated shooter. the treestand hunters mantra is "bend at the waist",kind of tough to do while sitting!! can result in the lower bow limb hitting your knee before or at the shot,TROUBLE!!! I agree with ben/pa,stand as long as you can stand it.sit only for short breaks but never during the "golden hour".
