I will buy a good book to take to the stand and read a paragraph here and there. Last year it was Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six. Have not decided on my book for this year. I am thinking maybe Tom Clancy's Slinter Cell, or maybe Ghost Recon.

I like to read a book when i am sitting all day. On short sits i have no problem staying focused. I have seen the Realtree guys using the hand held games and i think i might give that a try this year, since so many are trying it.

No, Im just joking. What I usually do is hunt hard and what that means is always stay alert with high confidence. It only takes a few seconds for a monster buck to slip by you undetected so I am always scanning the surroundings hoping and waiting. It just seems like you see more when your not preoccupied with other things.
