RE: Old deer stands.
When I started hunting ,1957,We never seen stands. My Dad was old school You always picked a spot and a tree and stood all day behind the tree. I remember one year I built a tree limb seat between 2 trees to sit on. He thouhgt that was being a sissy. I wish I could get to some of my old spots. I always would carve myname in the tree and record a count of the deer I shot from behind that tree. I will never forget the first buck I shot. a herd of 41 deer came walking past me and I shot a 6 pt. That old tree looked like a book page after 10 years of hunting and recording all the kills.
