I am also going to forgo putting the stand on the 8 ft tower because in the new spot I will be looking down hill. I have killed a lot of deer out of this in both archery and rifle season but unless I want to play lumber jack to open a lot of woods up so I have better visibility and I will be 79 in 3 months I have to move. Looking forward to the new site and I will be in the stand on Friday to see how it does.

This is the stand after the move. it is on the edge of a large grass hay field which has woods on three sides. The woods where my stand was does not look like it did in the above photo, because of the openings in the woods caused by fallen white ash trees the new groth has almost made it impossible to see deer that are not on the grass road that passes my stand. The leaves are that thick on the young trees and bushes you can't see through them.

That looks like a great setup and the deer should be coming around with the blown down trees. Deer love those new saplings growing. Good luck with getting one..
