I sit until I see deer movement, I wish I could stand, but due to back surgury a few years ago I just can't do it more than 15 minutes straight.

I feel for you! Ive had two levels fused in lower back. Dr told me I was nuts for climbing trees and walking so much during season. I told him obviously he wasnt a hunter!

This is what usually happens to me when I sit too long anyway.

I sit, and stand only to stretch my back and legs. I even take many of my shots while sitting, but not always.

the way I hunt Is an all day thing. from before sun up to after sun set. I don't think my legs would be too happy about me standing all day all weekend[8D]

I stand 99% of the time on stand. When it hurts bad enough I sit briefly. I just want to be up and ready if the buck of a lifetime comes in from an odd angle.
x2 I stand as much as I can. I may sit for 5 minute spells to ease the pain or get ready for the homestretch.

I only stand when I see a deer coming or I have to pee in my bottle.

I tend to put a lot of hours in. I sit and stand. I don't try to be ready at all times as much as I try to be relaxed.

Relaxed and ready to engage autopilot kill mode.
