I know where Wisconsin deer like to lay, and thats in the thick forest to avoid the predators, and taking our ladder stand that far into the woods just can't be done.
In that case, save your money this year and invest in a good, lightweight climbing stand that you can carry in that far. It'll be worth every penny you spent when you connect with that first deer. Keep trying.
OR how about grabbing a couple stools and sitting on the ground i did that for my first two deer and it seemed to work alright not to mention it cost a grand total of $20 to get one
