What is the best height for a tree stand?
Most hunters seem to prefer a tree stand that is around 20-25 feet high, but the right tree stand height for you depends on a number of factors. For deer hunting, you need to mask your movement and scent, and the higher your tree stand is, the more you're concealed from your prey. While having those advantages helps, tree stands over 25 feet up also increase the difficulty of your shot due to the increased angle, which makes it harder to hit vital organs for a clean takedown. Look for trees that offer plenty of natural concealment at around 20-25 feet to stay hidden and improve your visibility without severely impacting your shooting angle.
Is a ground blind better than a tree stand?
Ground blinds and tree stands both have their pros and cons. Hunting blinds provide easier shots on your target since you're shooting straight on, and you can move around more in a blind than a stand. Ground blinds also provide wind protection, and unlike stands, you don't need to rely on finding the perfect tree to set up shop. However, tree stands have several advantages over ground blinds. They make it easier to hide your scent, you have better visibility of the hunting grounds, you're out of the deer's line of sight, and you can choose the height of the stand. Ultimately, it comes down to your personal preferences. If you want to increase your stealth and view while hunting deer, a tree stand will suit you well.
Are tree climbing stands safe?
A tree climbing stand is as safe as you are. Any tree stand is dangerous if the proper precautions aren't taken. No matter what type of stand you use, always wear a safety harness, sometimes called a fall arrest system, for protection. Make sure to secure your treestand harness high enough on the tree stand so that you can climb back in if you fall out. Also, don't climb up your tree stand with your gear in tow. Instead, use a haul line to pull your gear up once you've safely reached your summit.
