Tree Stand Height

Change your screen name to shovel. You sure do like digging your hole.

 

I really thought you were going to say so I can shovel your slop to the trough...

 

Everyone hopes you'll go 40 feet in a 30 foot tree

 

It's spelled you're. As in you are.

 

Shovel would be appropriate. A shovel is a tool.

 

What type of sticks do you use? The math for a standard 32" would say the sticks need to be almost 4 ft apart to reach 26'. How do you climb that? i don't think I could.

 

Thanks Boss! I was strangling a bear while I wrote that, spell check must have missed it.

 

Makes you wonder why people intentionally try to mess up a great site with crap like this.

 

16-18 ft. I kill a few deer. I have them all around me almost every hunt. It's more about camo and scent control and being still and quiet.

 

If u are quiet and camouflaged you can be 20 no problem

 

What is the point of this guy and all the BS threads? Can admin ban him already

 

I'll go up to 30 feet if I'm in a tree that doesn't have cover around it and I know the blob I'll create will stick out. Otherwise I'm 15-18 feet.

 

I killed a 145 inch 10 pointer from a stand that was 8 feet up a tree.

 

There's exceptions to every rule, but generally speaking you're better off hunting higher, rather than lower. You HAVE to be out of a deer's peripheral vision to win. Hunt high my friends.

 

I'm normally up 16-20 feet. I killed that buck 20 years ago.

 

The last time I asked that I was told I need to grow up. lol

 

I got in trouble for skirting the filter and telling him to eat a bag of male anatomy parts.....

 

The best way to discourage posting is not to respond.

 

I bet you always overestimate measurements!

15 deer in the last 8 years and all taken at 15 ft. (or from the ground). No record breakers, but my area's not known for them anyway.
