Looking good guys. Ive been watching hunting videos all week and the blood is moving up. What I wouldn't give to be sitting in a tree. Enjoy your hunts and be safe. Love reading the stories and seeing the pics.

That 8 is a stud. Good luck on him.
Little fella is feeling a little spry this morning. He's ran after every doe that's come through!
That's what it's about right there! Great video. I love days like that.

I've been using those hawk sticks for 2 years and never had an issue. Just like all sticks, wrap it around the tree, pull the bottom stand off out and pull down. I don't recall ever having one slip or anything.Good to know. Thank you. Don't wana be losing teeth or throwing back out.
@BamBam77 I just placed my order for the same stand. Was kicking around the idea of the Vanish or Air Raid but decided on the Vanish. I ordered the X3 4 pack sticks as well. Total weight should be right at 23 lbs. Been talking myself out of it for over a year now but thanks to you and @Ski y'all helped me spend my money lol. I hunt out of lock ons the majority of the time and can have one hung pretty quick for permanent sets so I know I'll utilize this over my climber. I used my Summit once last year. It's comfortable but I just hated always packing it around.
It's not my fault!!!!
I've got the hawk 3-steps I used for a lock on and never had an issue. I bought a saddle a year and a half ago and a set of the tethrd skeletor sticks. Have only messed with them in the yard but they're lightweight and seem to bite the tree good. Meant to use the setup last year and never did so hopefully I will this year.
Also have a Lone Wolf custom gear lock on. Think it's the .5 model.Had a pretty good sit tonight. Saw several nice ones but nothing close.
Nice , I was waiting for you to post a picture with the big 8 though.
I saw him tonight. I didn't get a chance to move my stand so I stayed on the ground from a distance to observe. I saw where he exits bedding and where he's staging before coming out in the open. Had I been able to get in early enough to move my stand, I probably would have gotten him. But that's how it goes. Tomorrow maybe.
I saw one of the other big 8s as well but even though his rack is big I think he's only 3.5. I can check that one off.
Back in the same spot I sat yesterday morning. 2 lil bucks so far. Seen eyes at a salt lick walking in. My dad's cam is over it and he sent me this pic. One of the potential deer I'd shoot. I walked by it around 5:50.
He's purdy!

Nice sit. Looks like some burnt wood to cover your scent a little. Good looking buck. Big body. Good luck.
Nice catch! Burned tree tops. I was sitting in the weeds that grew up tall in the burn spot.
