I am getting to hunt some prime land in South East Ohio. I never have had permission to hunt land like this before. I am used to state land that is hunted hard with little bucks and low deer numbers. So I am pumped up to the max. My question is this, I have a vaction for the first week of Nov to hit the rut and more days after that. There is 5 of us in our group. Should I or we hang our stands 2 weeks before we get down there or hang them when we get there in Nov? I know the earlier the better but not everyone can get together for a certain date. I wanted to go down on the 18th, that would give the stands 2 weeks to settle down alittle. Some can get the time off and some can not. Should I go down and hang what I can or just wait. Sorry I am rambleing, I am just pumped up! Can you tell? [8D]. So, What would you do?

I personally have a climber, but my dad and brother do not. That is also in favor for me.
