Stand placement
Here is some land that my buddies and I hunt. The orange boxes are stand locations. Just wondering what you all thought and if there could be some better locations. 5 of the 8 have shot big bucks and all have seen some. The fields to the north are now CRP. just thought I would generate some discussion. Thanks

RE: Stand placement
are these rifle or bow stands or both? I assume from the location most are rife and they look pretty good. Have you guys looked around for crossings on that farm lane in the lower center conecting fields? It looks like a bit of a funnel....I bet a couple of your bucks have been nailed in those two stands in the upper left corner of the property heading to the fields. Good funnel a nice distance from food.

RE: Stand placement
The middle stand on the west has gotten three super bucks in the 150s and 160s. The two upper have gotten a 6X5 and the very north stand on the West side is mine. Alot of Deer going through there . Here is the one I got this last year . I get it back in a couple of weeks. Have'nt thought of one there yet inb the fiels connection. Will look into it. Really wet though

RE: Stand placement
sounds like they are all placed well....getting trophies like that means you did something right! I like to get right in the thick of things...especially for archery....and in areas where there are multiple crossings....
