RE: How High Do You Hunt Mostly?
 

I generally hunt from 20-26ft. up which is just right for my area. I find that sometimes if you get too high that shot placement becomes extremely critical the higher you go leaving very little margin for error and secondly sometimes if i you get too high you can be even more skylined then if your only 15 ft. up a tree. My rule is you want to be as high as the most amount of cover whether it be 12ft. or 30.

21-25 for me

RE: How High Do You Hunt Mostly?
 

Most of the time I'm over twenty to twenty five but I remember one time I was thirtytwo feet up.

I've moved up this year to at least 18 but no higher than 20.
At 15-16 after leaf drop I got picked off from 50 + yards.

18 - 20 worked great this year.

WOW! I think you could finish peeing from your stand before it hits the ground .... but that is another thread ...:D

RE: How High Do You Hunt Mostly?
 

normally i try to stay right around 22 to 23 feet minimum

RE: How High Do You Hunt Mostly?
 

Another instance where I probably over estimate. How high do three Lone Wolf strap on steps get you when you have an 36" inseam?

Then I went an bought three more. I used 5 on one tree last year with a couple of branches thrown in! One of the most intense days I have ever had hunting as I had a group of deer bedded under me for hours!

I haven't used all six......., yet!:D

I'm around 20 feet or higher. Depending on cover when I'm low about 15. 20 or higher is safe from detection by deer. I just dont want to spook the big one when he comes around.

RE: How High Do You Hunt Mostly?
 

usually about 18ft for me

RE: How High Do You Hunt Mostly?
 

15 to 20ft. with a climber.
