Thanks for the reply. I am using a compound bow, it is legal for both turkey and deer. I have read everything on the ODNR website and it state nothing about being in a tree stand. I just had a buddy tell me it wasn’t allowed, but he might be mistaken. Contacting the game department is a good idea, I will do that. I am not out there shooting everything I can. I pass on squirrel, raccoon, opossum, rabbit ect all the time. I just really wanted to turkey hunt, but the same buddy said it was a waist of time in the fall and I will never see anything in a tree stand, so I didn’t buy a tag. Well he was wrong. I really don’t think my chances of taking a deer in my location are very good so why not a turkey. Either way it will be my first deer or turkey. So, if I dont call, should i just sit in the same spot and hope they walk by?
