Default RE: Sleeping in.....

I am not a morning person so I try to squeeze every bit of sleep in that I can. With that being said, I'm usually in my stand and settled with a minimum of 15 minutes before shooting light and more likely 30 minutes.

I once read an article where a guy said he had patterned a big buck but could not get into the woods without pushing the deer out no matter how early he got in there. So he set up 2 lock ons on a couple of close trees facing each other and strapped himself to the base of the stand the night before he planned on hunting. He slept on the stands and had his cell phone alarm wake him up. He arrowed the buck the following morning. May be BS, but a cool story none-the-less.
