I like the one shot stands with concealment every where but the one intersection where several trails come together, a water crossing or ditch where they go up or down the side. I like to be high up.

But I'll take a wide open clear shot situation in a hot wood lot full of acorns if that's where the deer are. I use a climber and ever spot is on the best tree in the place I want to be. I'll turn it around on the tree if the wind changes. I want the wind blowing in my face, not theirs.

I save my miracle shots, challenges, and may bees for the target range.
