    Rehung 5 of my stands on my bowhunting property in early june. Had a storm come through and 4 out of the 5 stands are now crumpled beneath the fallen trees. Time to purchase 4 more cheap stands and rehang them in the mosquito infested river bottom. One positive is i will have plenty of brush and logs to make travel corridors! Lol

    I think we got the same storm you got lastnight early this morning here, I also hunt a river bottom and went out to see the damage and the water was so high I couldn't get in. Guessing my cameras are underwater as well.

    Lol right?? I went down figuring I might have one down but was pretty unlucky to get four. We got hit pretty hard and woods are a mess but will put some hours in and make some kickass travel corridors! Thanks guys!
