Do it a lot in my neck of the woods. Grew up doing it, but was never good at it. Then I feel into the deer stand trap and that's nothing more than blind luck most of the time. As I get older, my responsibilities weigh on me more and if I'm sitting in a stand I get stir-crazy and lose interest fast. So I've forced myself to get back on the ground to move around to stay in the game and keep focused. But if it's calm and crunchy, then I'm forced to find a spot to sit. Rarely ever tote a stand around anymore. I'll find a stump or tree to lean on or tuck into a pine tree/brush pile.
