Stand
Sites
Once you've found the buck's core area
and travel routes you can choose the spots to hang your stand.
Don't rely on just one stand site when you're after a big buck; choose
several different sites, so that you can hunt both morning and evening,
and so that you have an alternate site when the wind isn't right. If you
have several stands, and you have the chance, hang them up at least a week
before you plant to hunt.
If you don't have enough stands for all your hunting sites you can still
prepare the sites. Choose the trees you want to use, hang a stand in them
to see if everything is right, and cut your shooting lanes so you are ready
when it's time to hunt.
Don't wait until the day of the hunt to prepare the sight, because there
is a good chance the deer may figure out something is wrong, especially
if you are there when they come through.
Hunt safe, hunt ethical and God bless you and yours,
T.R.
