For most folks, anything more than 3-4 hours in a stand/woods is a chore. I guess I learned early that the more time in the woods, the higher % of success for whatever your after. I have a routine that has me sitting still with no movement for 50 minutes every hour. then I stretch, move alittle adjust things for 10 minutes and start over for 50 min. more. I' ll usually sit in my primetime stand for 4-5 hours, then possibly get down and move to another for an hour or 2, then go back to the first stand, or try another I have confidence in. Keep in mind that bowhunting is as much a mind game as it is a hunt. And remember, BOREDOM IS A STATE OF MIND. Steve
