I wish I had the answer to that question. Seems like after 15 min. I'm feeling like dozing off. Sometimes a quick nap on the ground works for me. I was thinking last time I did that I would look like a guy who fell out of his stand just laying there. If I'm in my climber that has arm rests etc. I usually just doze off a bit.

If Im in a stand and catch myself dozing off and cant stop I get down .A good night sleep helps alot and if I come out midday I sometimes take aquick snooze back at the truck.

Drink a red bull or two before you get to the stand.

I work night shift.

I sleep in my stand all the time. Lots of times I've had something wake me to look straight at a deer as soon as I wake up.

I go to bed early and if that doesnt work, I dip.
