A lot of that depends on the stand. I try not to hunt a stand more than twice a week but I will occaisionally hunt one 3 times in a week. If you have a stand that has exceptional entry and exit routes then you can get by with hunting it a little more often. If you have a stand that very little potential for deer travel on the down wind side of the stand you can by with hunting it a little more often. For example, if you had a stand on a river bank. Let's say you could sneek in and out to the stand down the bank of the river and everytime that you hunted it, the wind was blowing your scent across the river. So you weren't buring the area up with scent during your entry and exit and you had very little scent collection. Then you could get by hunting a stand a little more often. However, 2-3 times a week is a good standard to use.
