Default Where do you store your stand?

Since I had to stay home with a sick kid yesterday, I did a lot of chores around the house and in the yard. Mowed the grass/collected leaves, ran the chainsaw , ran the log splitter, split about a cord of wood. As I was putting things away last night I looked over at my new viper x4. And it hit me. I'm storing gas cans in the same garage where I keep my bow and stand. Where do you guys put your tree stands when your not out hunting? I'm wondering what I can do to minimize the unnatural smells from soaking into my hunting gear.

I keep all my stuff in the barn. Then it smells like barn animals which the deer are used to anyway!

I store all my hunting equipment in my barn also. It doesnt get the "Human" scent as some people say. It keeps them with a scent like it was part of the outdoors.

mine is in the backseat of my truck rightnow with an Earth Scent wafer pinned to it. Keeps the whole truck smelling nice and earthy.

Usually i keep it in the basement or garage and spray it down with scent lkiller before using it, but during the season it spends most of the time in my truck

Store my Summit Climber in my garage...but spray the crap out of it before taking it out in the woods. If I had a barn, it would go there too.

Mine's in the garage..........with all the lawnmowers,gas cans, etc. !!

I've killed two does already, seen I don't know how many does, passed on 3 bucks, and almost got a shot on a good buck last week out of it................so I don't think it's causing me any trouble !

During the season mine stays outside on my back porch. During the off-season I take off all the padding, straps, etc. and store the metal frames in my basement. I put the padding, etc. in a storage container.
