How many sets?
 
I just came in from hanging another set. Yeah, I am still hunting for a buck or an unlucky doe. As I was swaying around in 30 mph wind gusts, I got to thinking, "boy it seems like I have done this before." I took a rough count from this summer to now of how many sets I have hung. Tally came to 19. I have mixed in my climber here and there but have spent the majority of 190ish hours in these sets. Results for my sets have been 2 does and one nice buck, with only one of the does being mine and that was at twild's so I am not sure I can count that. I have had the best year ever as far as sightings, but I just wondered where I stood in comparison to the masses.

How many sets have you hung this year? Single or double doesn't matter. How many locations?

I only had 4 setups this year, but I'll probably keep adding 1 a year.

Since I hunt from a climber 90% of the time, I don’t hang many stands. When I do hunt from my hang on, its in & out just like a climber. I hunted from 13 of 22 pre determined trees at my one place. And 4 of 10 at my other spot. None of these count ground setups.

Didn't hang the first stand. Used my climber most of the time. However, the 2 bucks I shot I shot while on the ground. One I set up in a washed out ditch. Shot the buck at 12 yards. The other I was walking in and had my climber on my back when I shot the deer. Who needs a stand? [8D]

23 that I can think of. Have a few stands hung but the latter part of this season I've been using the climber and my Assault with sticks for mobility. Funny that I killed my doe and buck from the same set.

Headed out for what could be the last sit. Can't help but want to head to a set I hung a week ago and haven't hunted yet. The wind is ok. I just can't help but feel like I should be on this field edge where I have been all freaking year. ( and have had good sightings ) But I hung this other stand based on a terrain feature that I hadn't had prior knowledge of. I'm thinking I am headed there. Here goes nothing.;)

I have hunted around 10 different setups this year, but some were two man sets that were hung by friends. I hung probably 5 or so of those.

I hung three this year, and stayed mobile with my climber. I'm hoping to add 3-4 more sets next season, because for the first time ever, I'm planning to hunt other properties besides my own.

I can't even come close to recall how much time I've spent in the woods! Almost 4-5 times a week, some all day.....don't even want to think about it...it's depressing[&o] I haven't even got my buck yet!!!
