Just saw deer running on ridge toward Harry
Glad you weren't hurt but did you fellas go all the way to Kansas to hunt out of Baker stands? You're probably not old enough to get that one but suffice it to say they were notorious for slipping. Sometimes all the way down the tree. Good luck gentlemen.30ish minutes ago patty catches movement and sees a buck making a scrape. I look over and see a doe but get the camera on her. Then I see the buck, they’re working there way towards us and I’m getting great footage. As they get about 60 yds out I’m trying to swing my camera arm a little bit and my stand slips on the tree and I fall out of the stand completely. There’s a reason we wear harnesses and that’s the exact reason folks! I would have fallen 20+ feet and likely seriously injured. Thank you Patrick for saying a prayer for me this morning as I was climbing to set the stand. Needless to say my little rodeo scared the two deer off.

Sneak down and stand it back up and put some smell good on that thing...Dern wind just blew the decoy over. Crap
I didn’t ever hunt out of one but we had one. Tried putting it up one time and it’s still sitting in that tree.
