If you shoot sitting down, keep in mind you will not be bending at the waist so you'll be shooting high.
As far as standing up, I either do it as soon as I see the deer off at a distance, or when the deer is behind a tree. Most of where I hunt I only have shooting lanes, so that's always times when I'm hidden from the deer. Also, make sure you have cover to break up your outline-small tree behind you, another tree, anything that breaks up your pattern, so it's not just you hanging off the side of a tree like a sore thumb.

Thanks for the tips. It's been on of those seasons this year. Just any and everything has happened to me.
I didn't think of getting up as soon has I see them way off. I will definitely try that. Try standing most of the time. I used to bow hunt a lot and would just stand as long as I could leaning up against the tree. Rather be ready than caught off guard sitting down.

I haven't had a deer see me moving in my stand. When i first see a deer i move slowly and stand up slow. I hope to never have a deer spot me. I do try to look at the surrounding foliage to help conceal me. Best of luck to you
I am pre choice!

We may be hunting the same 6 pt on wheeler? I had a 6 pt bust me out there, 45 yards away, I was already standing, 25+ in my climber and he stopped and looked straight at me. Could have it happened around 945. I was near the jolly b area.

I've been seeing a 6 point off and on for the past month, hoping to get out and get him this week if you two haven't yet :P There is a massive 8pt out there too. We'll beyond the ears but still young.
