    I've heard that some of those China made stands are prone to platform cracks? Don't know how much truth there is to that. Good luck with your new stand though!

    Fortunately, it did! The temp picked right up. And the squirrell numbers have since tripled. Im now watching 3. Orange army interference has increased as well! Have seen two today already. Seems to be a bust for me today. I know people have great success sometimes after a hunter tramples through, but im beaten. Think its almost time to head out, get some food and prepare for an early afternoon sit in another spot! Thanks for the blessings
