Cover is key. I started using it more this year and my sightings went up.

Exactly right! I want cover and height, but if I have to give up one, I'll give up the height to get more cover.

You're right Dan. I guess it comes from too many years of me doing this kind of work.

Jeff, You've got to remember not everyone is comfortable, nor should they be up 25 to 35 ft. in a Tree.
I've sent friends to stands I've set before and they couldn't/wouldn't get in.
They said you gotta be Kidding!!
I forget not everyone has worked construction their whole life.

RE: bowhunting problem
Possible better break-up of your outline if you're wearing snow camo?You've got to look at the background and see how to blend in best. When all the leaves are off the trees snow camo can be very effective if there is little background to highlight the white.

While out shed hunting/checking my trail cam today, i took a picture of one of my setups for you Evan. This is onei feel like the deer have a very small chance of spotting me in (even though its onyl 15 feet off the ground).
