Practice tree stand shots?
How many of you treestand hunters practice regularly from an elevated shooting platform before season? I for one use a ladder stand that has never seen the woods. A great investment, (under a hundred dead presidents), that allows you to practice tuff angle shots. Another plus is you don't have to walk far to get there, since it can reside in your back yard. Make one part of your practice routine... you'll be glad you did.

My hunting buddy and i just practice in my back yard from a tree there. you really have to trust that your buddy has respect for safty. also one uf us stands behind teh tree while the other shoots 6 arrows. then the one on the ground goes and retrieves the arrows. and we switch after about 60 shots!
it works for us. and we didnt have to build some platform. otherwise we just shoot from my deck. its about 18' up because the slop in the back yard!

All of my bow buddys and I practice from some type of tree stand , the kids tree house , a balconey ,a stand in a tree and I sank a presure treated 4x6 next to the gardge to hang the stand. The only shot that matters is the first just like in the woods .I get all decked out in camo with face mask, climb to the stand ,sit a while and take ONE shot ,just like in the woods!
