How
To Find More Bow Stands
"When you're not in your tree stand hunting, you should be scouting for more tree stand sites to hunt from," Larry Norton of Pennington, Alabama, a deer hunter who hunts deer more than a 100 days each year, explained. "The more places you have you can hunt from, the better your odds will be for taking a deer. If you only hunt from a stand when you have the right wind condition, you should have enough stands that regardless of which way the wind is blowing on the day you want to hunt, you have a stand you can go to with a favorable wind.
"To
accomplish this goal, you need a multitude of stand sites. The best way
to have a large number of spots to hunt and know where all of those places
are is to use a hand-held GPS receiver. When you find a good stand site,
mark that site as a waypoint with your GPS receiver. Note the number of
that waypoint in a log book, and also note the wind direction you'll need
to hunt that site with a favorable wind. By logging every stand site you
discover and the correct wind condition, each day after you check the wind,
you'll know which stand to hunt from for the most success.
"Remember,
when you go to one of your stand sites, don't leave any sign that will let
other hunters know where you are hunting from. If another hunter finds your
stand site, he may hunt from that site under the wrong wind conditions and
spook the deer you're trying to take. 
"This
is the most important secret to being a successful bowhunter. NEVER TELL
ANYONE WHERE YOU ARE HUNTING OR WHERE YOU'VE TAKEN A DEER. THE MORE PEOPLE
HUNT IN AN AREA OR FROM A PARTICULAR STAND SITE, THE LESS CHANCE YOU HAVE
OF TAKING A BUCK THERE.
"Learn to tell good stories that result in your giving out no information. Good luck. I hope I've helped you this week."
