[QUOTE="double browtine, post: 5214862, member: 9490"] I had a friend that used to hunt 400 acres of hardwoods in Stewart County. He hung about 8 stands on the property. He only hunted muzzleloader and gun. He took a chainsaw and cut a 20 yard wide swap in 4 different directions all around his stand, about 100 yards long. He hunted out of 16-20 ft ladder stands. He did this around each stand and said he rarely worried about the wind direction. He killed plenty of deer every year. He once missed a buck at 100 yards and the buck turned and ran straight to him at 20 yards on the trail. Now I realize that this isn’t possible to most people to do on public or leases but it works to have a good clear shooting lane in big timber. Just a thought, but lots of work with a pole saw and chainsaw. I could see it working in East TN on those high long ridges. [/QUOTE]
