RE: Do you get HIGH?
I usually get about 20'-25'. Now if the wind is blowing I usually get between 15'-20' because I don't like getting sea sick[:-]

RE: Do you get HIGH?
Highest is 25'.........I like 18' to 20' the best. At 20' and over the angles just to bad. I used to hunt alot at 10' to 14'.......and just got busted to often (probably 1 out of 3 times). Since moving to 18' to 22' the past to seasons......I've only been busted once, and that was adeer approaching from behind that I didn't see. I don't use any 'scent blocker stuff', I just keep my clothes clean and sweat free. The last 2 seasons I've had probably 45 to 50 shot opportunities(inside 20 yards).
Good Luck! |
RE: Do you get HIGH?
I go anywhere between about 8 and 16 feet. Depends mostly on cover. I don't like the steep angle of shots higher than that, and I can usually get good cover where I need it within that range of height. I use scent killer, carbon clothes, etc.and rarely get busted. When I do get busted it's almost always been because I didn't see a deer and moved in late firearms season when they're extra paranoid.
Doesn't going much higher than 20' make it hard to double-lung them? |

RE: Do you get HIGH?
40ft is the highest. And it has to be a large oakor something along those lines.
Usually around 16 to 20ft. |
RE: Do you get HIGH?
When bow hunting, I do my best to stay around 15 feet.
However, when gun hunting, I am prone to go 30 to 40 feet in a pine tree. I know this sounds insane, but on public land I feel like the higher the better. First and foremost, to avoid getting shot, secondly helps me view a larger area. If I can see that deer are moving in a different area then I can move. Can't see large areas from 15 ft. These areas that allow me to get up that high are few and far between. Otherwise, I just get as high as I can. |
RE: Do you get HIGH?
I usually don't get above 20ft. I usually stay around 15 feet. The lowest I will go is about 12ft. But it sometimes depends on the terrain.

RE: Do you get HIGH?
8 ft.? Dang, I've never hunted lower than 12 and that was too low for me. It's all in personal preference I guess, and if you kill deer that low, kudos. I generally get anywhere from 18-25 feet.

RE: Do you get HIGH?
I like the 17-20 range. I've only been ina couple situations where I had to be hire than that.
