    Do you wear a bino harness in tree stand?

    A piece of rubber tubing around your chest is less bother than a harness

    Suggestions for a lever action?

    45-70 is my choice, especially since you already have a 30-30. The lighter 45-70 loads don’t kick much. Just pad yourself when shooting from the bench. And set up your sandbags so that you are sitting up straight and can roll with the recoil.

    Moving to Michigan

    Depends on if you hunted whitetail or mule deer in the past. Whitetail are more spooky. I have hunted both. And depends on if you are hunting public or private lands. The upper peninsula can be different than the lower. Bigger tracts of public land but wolves have hurt the deer herd in many...
