[QUOTE="fairchaser, post: 3994275, member: 10373"] One of the issues that screw up hunters with a buck is the wind more than anything else. You can't control the wind. Even scent control is illusive, although it can be minimized. Bucks will use the wind to their advantage and your disadvantage every time. Stand height is something you can control. Could a deer smell you at 100 ft? Probably not. How about 50 ft? You see where I'm going. The higher the better with diminishing returns. With a bow height starts to be a disadvantage too. I have one spot where I'm 30 ft off the ground but 60 feet over the area I expect deer to enter. I can hunt upwind of approaching deer. This is a huge advantage. I want shirt that says Think Wind. It's that important. [/QUOTE]
