Just so I can stay on top of this stuff...
 
When did a stand become a set? Was it before or after people started "harvesting" deer insteadof killing them?:D

When people starting filming hunts with two guys in the tree. 2 Stands = Set.

Well in that case I'm calling my stand a POD. You know...... I went to my POD this afternoon and killed a fine buck.

POD = Perch of Doom.

As you all know, I am a trend setter! (see my new deer pose). ;)

Wow, sounds like 2 famous lines from every Drury video I've ever seen.:eek: Add in "I'm one happy camper"and '" It doesn't get any better than this", and you've got it![8D]

I say "set" all the time. I hunt exclusively from a climber....and a particular stand site could have several "sets".....according to where I climb that day (due to wind, thermals, trail locations, terrain,etc...).

I look at it as more than just which treemy stand is infor that sit.

That's the way I look at it. A "set" is a set of stands hung. Other wise I hang it's stand to me. (single stand, not set of stands).

But I like GregH's view. Yeah my POD. Instead of Perch Greg, how about Platform of Doom? ;)

RE: Just so I can stay on top of this stuff...
 
I don't disagree, PT. I just think I use "objects" to mean terrain/scents/wind/etc...

I really needn't look further than this one, though.


7.
to put in the proper or desired order or condition for use: to set a trap.

Thanks for clearing that all up for me guys.

Along these same lines, if you hunt more than one country, does that make you an International Harvester?

I believe the Drury's use the term set to reference a movie set. You know when they say "he read the script" when they get a picture perfect kill. I have heard them refer to their box blinds as a set and they do not have 2 side by side...they are in the same one.
