I like to stay in my stand all day, if at all possible. This means I need to bring lunch/snacks or my stomach's grumbling will give me away. I'm also a slave to my stomach...

I'm kind of anal about scent control. I don't eat meat the day of the hunt and make sure to brush and floss my teeth the night before. I figure themix ofrotting flesh and saliva might be a predator scent to deer. I showerbefore i go into the woods, if at all possible. I useScent Killer spray on each layer of clothing, etc.

Inthe past, I've usually brought peanut butter and banana sandwiches for lunch/snacks and Red Bull for my afternoon caffeine fix. I figured deer like nuts, so peanut butter probably wouldn't scare them off and might even make them curious. I don't think bananas make much smell and they're good for energy levels. I sometime bring trail mix, although I'm a little concerned about the crunching noises they make when I chew them.

Any thoughts/advice? What does everyone else bring to eat/drink on the stand,besides water?

This is an easy one.

Scent control? Take a bath and use scent conrol products.

Sound? Sleep with my mouth shut so I don't snore.

you eat rotten meat?

i eat watever i find that i can bring along, usually beef jerky, trail mix, granola bars, if i was going to bring sandwhiches it would be those premade uncrustable pb&j sandwhiches, they are good, lol.

i honestly don't think drinkin deer blood on stand would spook deer, as far as smell goes anyway.

Brushing your teeth and flossing is something you should do every day x2


I take lunchables in the stand on all day hunts. And my camelbak is full of water.

If i take anything that has a wrapper, i un-wrap it the morning of and put it in a small rubber maidcontainer and stick that in my pack. No pesky metallic crunching noises that way . I tend to shy away from any plastic...even sandwich bags.
