Wife deer hunting with me?
My wife is going to start deer hunting with me this year and I was wondering how we both would sit up in a tree ( without one of those huge 2 man ladder stands ). Has anyone tried this before?
How do they do it on tv?
Action, I’m not to keen on using the double tree stands with new hunters. You just don’t know how they are going to respond to seeing a deer, when a shot is made, or after wards trying to get down. When I’m hunting the upper timber country in the Rockies I use two separate tree stands set up side by side and secured to the tree with straps and a reinforced mounting rail. This is usually a 2×6 or 2×8 that I set both stand lower frames on. I adjust the height of these stands to give the second hunter a level of confidence in setting on the stand. Being in the tree and finding out that your wife, girlfriend, or brother in law is afraid of heights or gets the shakes when the wind blows is not a good time to have the stand maxed out on its height.
I’ve been on a bear hunt in Canada while a TV crew was filming, they set up 4 stands around the bait. One above the hunter for filming his perspective, one to the right and one offset to the right of that one in case the wind changed while they were filming an angle shot. Everyone on the crew was an experienced hunter and had been in many many tree stands and ladders rest. Good luck and good hunting.
