Bear with me as some of you have seen these pics before; I would like to point out these pics of a property and this was the only tree that could be hunted out of if the wind was out of the North if I wanted to hunt this corner. In my old days I would have just said screw it...can't hunt here. I knew it was good as I had seen deer move through here as I sat in another stand location. This is an example of yes I can hunt here and I made it work. How many of you guys would have said, no way...no deer is going to walk by that or even took the effort to get a stand here? Like Greg said, do u really think a deer is going to come by you if you tell him where you are at?[&:]





Tree so small I have to add width. stand is 7-8 ft high

Here comes mr pinoak buck





10 yds from tree



10 ft from tree



Directly under me, by leaf above my right boot. 3 ft from my boot. No carbon clothing, scent sprays, cover scents. The wind is in my face. River bank behind me, a funnel from my right that makes the deer walk right by here.



Right below me. I have this stuff happen ALL OF THE TIME, by having the wind in my favor. The only thing that is PROVEN to work in not having a deer wind you..the wind in your favor.



Walking away after spending several minutes under my stand. I wore cotton gloves and I only needed one LW stick to get in this tree and he sniffed the stick..couldn't smell me, and just hung out and calmly walked away to my left, none the wiser.Would I waste my time sitting in this stand with a south wind and wearing carbon clothing and cover sprays...no..I have better ways to waste my time.
