RE: Things to do in the Stand
 

I usually try to keep myself as still as possible. I try to make it a game to see how long I can go without moving any part of my body. It is also fun to move as slow as possible when I do move. When I don't move for long periods of time I feel like parts of my body have shut down and there is nothing left to do but let my mind wander. It's kind of like treestand meditation.

Ur kidding right??

This is my thing games on the cell. I have a thing for tetris and poker! Anyone else know of any good time consuming games to download?? haha

I usually hunt when I am on stand. To hell with all that other crap.

It is hard enough to spot a deer when you are paying attention. How do you expect to see one while you are playing games or reading a book? I might eat a snack but other than that I am looking for deer!

Jm.... my thing with the playing games is I usually know about when deer will be moving through and I got EARS, but other then that i always have loved that surprise when a deer does get to you without seeing or hearing it come! To me that is one of the most pumped situations you will find yourself in whether it be a buck or doe. Element of surprise!

I don't think this could have been said any better! That's EXACTLY what I was thinking. When I bowhunt in Alberta, Isit all day (12hrs), every day,the whole week or until I kill a buck. It's too expensive to hunt any other way.Plus, I want to kill a buck, and that gives me my best chance.;)I break my day up into 3 four hour hunts, It's a mind thing.:DThe only reason I'll get up is to streach, and or take a leak.

I look over my bow and arrows for any problems then just sit back and enjoy

RE: Things to do in the Stand
 

Soooo then why don't you just get there 5 minutes before they get there and you won't have to sit all day.

My deer move when they want to, not when I wish they would.
