RE: How many hours in the stand with no deer (this year)??
About 50 hours and I have seen three does, all out of bow range. I moved to Texas this summer and the hunting is a lot different that what I'm used to so I haven't figured it out yet. The area I'm in does not have a lot of deer by Texas standards and they seem to be concentrated in certain areas. Unfortuneately the places I have permission don't seem to be those areas. Hoping to do better next year.
