It is a ladder stand and it's hard to find another tree in this old orchard. The trees are only about 20' to 25' tall and the shooting lanes are cluttered. Another spot is not very likely.

I do have another stand in the same piece of woods about 150 yards west, and another about 450 yards northeast and uphill from this stand. I also have one about 250 yards due east along a ravine and near a feeding field.

I thought I'd wait a few days and then go back. Use the scent leaves again along with some dominant buck lure and a rattle bag and see what I can drum up. We've got some stormy weather here in central NY for the next few days anyhow. Your thoughts?
