[@williamdegroat5023]

You make me excited again. 60s and all you make is sense 👌 No thank you

[@PNWTRAILJUNKIE]

I appreciate your content. thank you!

[@kevintrick5942]

Subscriber here. I absolutely LOVE your content. You are literally the only content I seek on KZbin. My goal is to have you on property that I don’t even own yet one day. It may be 5-7 years out but I’ll shake your hand one day.

[@timhatfield6367]

You should try a saddle! Lol .. saw you roll your eyes.. Lol.. no really your setups are well thought out,makes good sence. I spend a lot of time thinking my way through each of my stand setups..45th bowseason coming up and with your awsome Habitat Solutions...it just keeps getting better. My grandson will be 16 in a week or so and I know he and his buddies all watch WHS! ALSO 99% of my friends who are outdoorsman. Thanks, WHS TEAM!

Yea I need the video for installing it quickly and taking it down. Only can hunt public land around here

[@sharpoutdoors3368]

I've been hunting and watching you for 2 years, and can honestly say using your tips over the last two seasons, has helped me an incredible amount. My first season about halfway through I found your channel and was able to tag my first deer ever after adjusting my tactics Last season I was able to start the season with your tactics. Put down 2 does and my first buck last year! Not a big one, but for my first, the basket 8 was enough to get my blood pumping Can't wait for this season and another chance at a bigger buck each year! Thanks Jeff for everything. Not just the info but the quality of your content and editing. Great work

Love the videos jeff!!! Keep it up

[@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751]

Thanks a lot Connor I hope they really help you out!

[@brianlenneman5032]

Very good video Jeff!!! Season is coming fast!!

[@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751]

Thank you very much!

[@brianlenneman5032]

@@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751 that tree looks familiar!!

[@beachralph]

I use more ground blinds I’m starting to think to switch to tree stands it hard to access them with noise from zipper what is your opinion Jeff love the videos

[@andrewvondoloski5541]

Finally a video about angle of the treestand, so many people don’t teach thus

[@stephenkendall6108]

Man just had a new very nice buck show up. Weather here got cool over night and he came rolling through a very isolated spot I’m watching that has tons of sign just not much action right now. Cell camera hasn’t sent much but what it has when it’s a buck it’s a nice one. Getting access right will be very tough long route over exposed travel even if I’m careful. Gonna be very tough to hunt but if I’m successful it will be very worth it.

So what would you do different if anything with a ladder stand versus the hanger or would you choose a different tree

[@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751]

Hi Tony great question! For a ladder stand I would have chosen a different tree...or likely a different spot with a different tree. I do look for better cover for my ladder stands...cedar, multi trunked oaks, large pines, etc. You also have to be concerned with climbing in and out on the front of the tree with your back to potential deer vs on the back of the tree and hiding behind the tree while climbing in or out. I LOVE my ladder stands, but I let the tree determine whether I use a hang on set or ladder. In the case of this spot I would not have set a ladder up in this tree or location.

[@Schooloutdoors]

Great video. I would have loved this video when I was first putting out tree stands. These are all things I had to learn the hard way

[@johndhead1]

After 50 years bowhunting I totally agree with all your points made. Be sure to practice setting down from your stand. Also if you use a small stabilizer bar, I tie a 3" loop in the end of my paracord haul line, pass it behind the grip but in front of cables and loop it over the stabilizer. The bow will hang upside down but securely as you lift it up. Be sure to have your line end 4 or 5 feet from the ground so your bow doesn't touch the ground or snow when it has been completely lowered. This method is fast with no metal to metal contact.

[@ericwhite6879]

What brand of bow hook do you use?

[@courtofficermcilvaine7928]

I like to install wire panels - draped with camo netting, as a backdrop behind all my stands. Enjoyed the video.

[@janitorialguy4436]

It gets tricky, I’m lefty and my hunting partner is righty. We make it work. thanks Jeff

[@Veritas1992]

That means you should just about 360° of coverage, right? 😉😂

[@connornelson308]

How does this change if you were doing public land? In theory, I can put up a (non-permanent) stand Sept 1. Would it make sense to put the stand up, but take the steps down when I am done each day?

[@ranhen8951]

I have been waiting for just this video. All the little things make one big thing and helps me as a novice tree stand hunter, but I have taken one nice 8-point buck last year thanks to Jeff's tips. TY brother. Harrison AR. on 22 acres now my first food plot and a ton of seed form you , glad you are selling seed so I can trust the seed germination rate.

[@L85S87C90]

New hunter here, putting up two tree stands. Your videos are so helpful; they're my hunting "bible." Thank you so much!

[@rib4th]

Is it possible/advisable to put a small plot (⅛ to ⅙ acre) plot back in timber behind house as a staging area for an afternoon/evening hunt when you have AG and garden in very close proximity to the house and out front?

[@Jonnydeerhunter]

Starting to think about hanging a stand on public land soon. I usually don't so people can't figure out where my spot is, but I have alot of issues with getting clear shots on the ground with a bow in the thick spots that I hunt. Thanks as always for the excellent information, Jeff.

[@drewharman1690]

I started hanging stands yesterday! Did most of my lane clearing back in June so just putting them in the tree now! Got 3 hung only 15 more 2 go 😂

[@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751]

Nice...chipping away Drew 😁

[@moedog5087]

Can't wait for the season! New bow hunter last year. I was unsuccessful last year. Definitely trying to prepare more for this year. Thanks for the great videos

[@carlo_scarpino]

Another amazing video! 2 water hole’s are filled & in the ground. First year for them! also 5 out of 10 tree stands are set up & ready! Never been so Fired up to Deer hunt like i am this year! Thanks A Million Jeff & Team. Hope to plant your seeds in the near future! Up here in Canada 🇨🇦

[@lwdeer1]

I have six in , hopefully they are in good spots, have to clear shooting lanes in the last one, starting to get excited for the season! Thanks for all the info!

[@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751]

Exciting time of the year Lori...good work!

[@h-minus2212]

Thank you for the great treestand tips. I bet you are on the trail of a monster buck (or two) this year. Good luck this fall.

[@craigkowalczyk3516]

In your video the clip where your in your ladder stand over the water hole your stand is facing directly at the water. Wouldn’t it make more sense to to have it at a 90* to the water ? Just seems you were at a lousy position to be drawing and shooting.

[@GWHcraig1088]

that stand is pretty open isn't it? no other branches or close trees to break up your out line. can u get away with this because of location? i personally usually try to wedge in-between a group of trees or something like a hemlock for concealment. Am i just thinking about it too much? and should worry more about location instead of being hidden? because i also feel as hunters we try to hide so hard. but for what? the deer? our own satisfaction? from other hunters... although that can be dangerous come gun season.

[@bowman8316]

Almost Go Time ! So exciting getting everything in order 👍🏼 Thanks for all the great tips 🏹🦌🕺🏻
