We made a couple of shooting lanes left & straight ahead from tree stand .
Now to decide where to put ground blind for crappy weather .

Looks like you're going to be prepared. Those lanes look great!

very very nice ross!

i had a success today too! found a crank cocking aid for my crossbow from a little archery store in london for 169.00$ that's lower than the suggested manufacturer's price LOL and about 60$ cheaper than basspro or cabelas for the same thing. and delivered to my house

I'm going to try for deer this fall, if it doesn't work out, it doesn't work out, but i'm going to try....
i was up and down a ladder a few times this weekend, so that still seems to be okay.
just have to figure something out to lean the bow on while in the stand so i have time to make sure it's a good shot.
seeing your photo makes it hard to wait for the season to start LOL.

Good stuff Kathy . What shop was that ? Not sure what your stand looks like but I put a flat 2/4 across front of mine , removable held by ceiling bike hooks at each end . Keeps me from falling out & flat to lay shotgun or Xbows on . I'll get some closeup pics . I also use my Ameristep dogloo on ground for days I can't climb . Luck

was thinking about a simple 2x4...i think i sit far enough back to be able to shoulder it right with that....otherwise maybe just a 2x4 vertically from a step to under the bow....will have to try a couple things out and see what works.

store is archer's nook in london-they now do mail orders!

Back to my ground blind , seeing I set up in one spot out back I also have a Blk leather , swivel ( complete ) turnaround well padded , lean back office chair . Makes the sit for long time with my back bearable . Luck

That is brilliant ross. Think i have some hooks hanging out...my stand is a bit different desgn but if i put some verticals up i could do that.
