Checking On Hunting Spot

I live on the East Coast and due to all the rain, I was a little late getting into my hunting spot to check things out and to put up my tree stand.

So I finally got to my hunting spot yesterday afternoon. And as much as I love buck hunting, I am also a football fan. So I had to listen to my game on the radio on my way down to my hunting spot.

The good news is, my team won. And I got my stand up. Even better is, I saw at least four BIG bucks. What a great day!

This is what buck hunting is about.

Happy Hunting,
Paul

Bow Hunting Tree Stands

As a deer hunter, there are so many bow hunting tree stands out there, I have found picking the right one is a matter of personal taste. Over the years, I have found that a climbing tree stand works best for me.

Assuming you have a tree stand that you like, getting your stand in your tree preseason is very important.

Here in Pennsylvania, we are just a couple of weeks away from getting out in the woods. That means now is the time to conduct some initial scouting and get my tree stand in the tree.

Deer Hunting Tree Stand

With Tree Stands, I always put safety first.

  1. Take a good look at your stand. Check for any rusting metal, missing bolts or nuts.
  2. If it has a wood base, make sure it is in great condition and has no rot.
  3. Also, I can’t stress the use of a safety harness enough. Even though it might sound goofy, I prefer a full body harness. While it might not stop a fall, it can reduce severity of injury.

If your stand is not in tip top shape, take a look at your local sporting goods store to find one that will keep you safe!

Happy Deer Hunting!

Hello. My name is Paul. I have been hunting White Tail Bucks in Pennsylvania and Maryland for over 30 years. In that time, I have learned a lot about the sport of bow hunting and archery.
