Most hunters try to have multiple stand locations ready for deer season, but we all have our favorite -- that one stand that looks the most promising and the one we're sure will produce a monster buck. We take special care with that stand and have everything just right for opening day.
Once everything is ready and it's time to hunt comes the most difficult part -- summoning up enough willpower to stay away from that stand -- unless the conditions are just right. The worst thing you can do is head to your best stand when conditions aren't right. If the wind is wrong and your big buck smells you, he won't be back (at least not in shooting light).
Save your favorite stand for when you have your best chance to take your buck. Make sure the wind is right and that you have plenty of time to get in and settled down. After all, a great stand is a terrible thing to waste.
