Deer hunting BS thread

Scared of heights?

Looks nice!!!!

 

4 more ladder sections once I get it where it’s going 20’

 

I don’t think I’ve ever seen bucks gather back together this late in the season.

 

is that seat made of trampoline material. I used to have a tree lounge that was so fine. you could lay in it and take a nap if you wanted too, without the fear of falling out of it. Sold it along with my hang on stands after the back went out. If you ever run across one of the early made ones, they are very nice.

 

I have not sat in it yet but I hated those sling seats that most ladder stands came with . I preferred the metal fold up seat and I would bring my own cushion .Even those now bother me because of my back also. This thing should be great with the seat that has a back . X-Stand , The Duke if you want to look it up ! It’s some sort of heavy weather resistant mesh I think it is called a trampoline seat I need to come up with something to cover the seat when not in use also . Hopefully critters won’t bother it .

 

I had a bear or bears get ahold of my last padded seat on my ladder stand. Tiny pieces of foam were all around the tree.

 

That is one of the things i like about the family tradition, i can uncable the seat, remove the seat and bar, recable the stand to the tree, nuthin wants to chew on metal

 

I like that the stand sits far enough away from the tree so you’re sitting back against the seat and not the trunk of the tree. That’s what always kills my back.

 

Here is my buck from a couple weeks ago, its the 1st buck off this farm since I bought it, my brother completed the euro mount, looks bad ass. The cedar was sourced from the family farm.

 

Muy bueno, me gusta

 

Yes ,I could remove this seat after the season. Just a couple bolts and nuts .

 

You are going to love it, I spent my last few years hunting out of them, I did have an advantage as

Nice Stand, my last few years hunting was spent in them, I had an advantage in that i could leave them up all year, I did put up a couple of "Double" wides which were really nice to shoot out of. I put a couple of wooden arms on a couple so I could put a piece of plywood across and use as a place to rest my pack, coffie, etc, (just an idea) Goog Luck

 

I will be leaving this stand in on private land behind my house I like how you hung those pine branches on there

 

Well, my target buck is dead. Someone knew the area I was hunting and asked if I had a big 8 on camera. Then showed me the skull

 

damn, man, you'll get his dad, dont worry...

 

It happens, keep hunting!!! Some of the biggest deer I’ve ever killed I never had a picture of

 

I dont even have cameras, i just randomly get lucky, maybe a few/several years in between, but,,,, @dwalden2, yer a BIG fisherman, so I/we know, that ya got patience
