I was checking out one of my other tree stands about an hour ago. This one is only about 100 yards from the edge of my back yard. I put this ladder stand up a little over one year ago but have never hunted out of it. The reason I put it there is that the deer like to cross the powerline leading to the house and when they do they pass right near this stand. The video I posted on 8/20/21 of the ten point crossing the powerline was taken right in front of this stand and I just added a photo of the nine point that crossed in front of the same camera on the morning of 8/28/21. Today I found a fresh scape and a small rub within fifteen yards of the stand on the left side and a chestnut oak about the same distance away on the right side is dropping acorns right now. Should be an excellent early season stand.
