I don't have the patience to sit in one of those all day.  I'm a spot and stalk kind of guy for the most part.  What happens if nature calls?  I guess you climb down and do your business well away from the stand?  Or do you pack a baggie up there with you and perform some gymnastics to use the potty?

I find tree sitting much easier than on the ground. Take a book.....relax....let the tree sway you into a sense of calm. Very relaxing.

I've shot 4 elk from that very tree and 4 spot and stalk.  I like to mix it up.

Hey....I'm shedding some weight....I'd like to think that if it will hold D-Rock it will hold me....however...I'm a bit more bulk. I agree with mixing it up ....sit and wait, spot and stalk. Do you have an extra harness or should I be shopping for one?

If you get down to D-Rocks weight I'll by you a pitcher of your favorite brew at the next get together.
