I did find a better spot farther back(was going to try that spot last since I saw a 6 pointer by spot #1 4 weeks ago) actually on the same run as spot#2 so if the deer use that I should see them first.WhitBri,so if you were in your tree and I came a sat 50 yards from you,knowing you were there you would be fine with that?You are right first come first serve,my tree was marked he found it AFTER he put his stand up,ripped my markers off,not to mention he was 100 yards away.Thats not too close for bow,shotgun/blackpowder yes not bow.Then are him and I going to be hunting the same times/days,most likely not.Now if I was to climb up and unbolt his stand and lags because I was there first is that right?No,I wouldnt want that done to me and I wouldnt do that to him,UNLESS I find my other spot messed with.WV Hunter,that is why I dont mark out my yardage,cause you can see it from a mile away and it draws attention to your spot.My new spot has markers(green or red electrical tape not the orange tape) to the tree,which isnt marked this time so no one know which it is,and I have to trek through the swamp to get there.
