Man how high up do you even need to be at a minimum? Never really even thought about it
20 ft us rule of thumb. If you can get into cover lower than that, so much the better. If you're in a tree that's practically a telephone pole with. I limbs, you might need to go 30-40...

Interesting only ever ground hunted so .... Like I've seen someone people like 40-50' up and I'm just like why Actually talked to one guy who hunts the national forest, said he likes being 50' ... Asked why and said with a 700 GR arrow he's shooting straight down and just though everything..... Idk about all that but hayyy

My most successful tree stand, when I used a tree stand was about 10', probably closer to 8, it was in a bushy white pine though... Usually just hunted on the ground, killed them fine and didn't have to climb a tree..lol

Some areas the deer are trained to look up. If you don't have any cover from limbs, you can get picked off if you don't get higher. Gotta watch when hunting near the tops of hills too. If you climb above the top of the hill Bd no cover, you skyline yourself to anything below the hill. Climbing too high ud not good for close in shots as you have no margin for erro.

I was hoping u would stick to those fabulous pole climper spikes
Unfortunately most states on public ground you can't use spikes. Some landowners aren't fans of of them either if they are hoping to sell timber in the future.

Not much timber business around here and didn't realize that
