If you're bored at sitting in the tree stand for a little while, there probably isn't anything we can do for you. If you are that bored, you're probably not paying attention, figiting and wiggling and ruining your own hunt.
My guess is you just shouldn't be in a tree stand.

You might wan't to get into "jump hunting". Find a clear cut or powerline, and try to jump some deer out of their bed's.
Nice work for a little lever 30-30, or 12ga.

Maybe find some people who run dogs and sit "down stream" from them, and wait any action.

You could invest in a nice feeder. Start now, and get them used to coming in to feed, and used to your smell=corn/apples/salt,whatever.
Pattern when they most likely feed and set up your stand 50 or so yards away.
It takes time and money to keep it all going, but those I know who do this, see so many deer, so often, they name them.
