Default RE: Official team 19 hang out...

ORIGINAL: AF Hunter

I just got done measuring distances:

1. from my front stoop to the new stand is 1080 feet.
2. the longest shot I might have to take from the new stand is 40 yards
3. from my front stoop to the two stands the furthest south is 2640 feet
4. the longest shot I have in the right one is 30 yards
5. the longest shot I have from the left one is 20 yards
6. the stand in between the house and the southern most stands is 1800 feet
7. the longest shot I have there is 30 yards.

I need to get stands in that southern most part of the land I can hunt, but cannot afford anything 'til I find work.[:@] I know there are some huge bucks bedding there, but since I just got permission not that long ago, I know I'll have trouble with trespassers this year.

The only thing I wonder about where the newest stand position is, I might have to take a slightly uphill shot. I have never done this and wonder if I would have to aim a little high to get the arrow to hit where I want???
You must be CRAZY BORED to be measuring the distance to your stands. I sure hope October 1 comes quickly for you.
