Most of the time I get down from 11 to 1 to meet up with my Dad and brothers to eat and compare notes. When the bucks really start getting into rut I stay all day, dark to dark. During that time, if I get a little restless I'll just close my eyes and use my ears only. See how long you can do this. When you finally do open your eyes it's like you just got some good sleep and everything is new. Make sure your safety belt is good and tight though. One thing I never do on stand........DRINK ANYTHING!!!
