This is our first deer hunt. Ok the area has been scouted in the spring. we planted four acres of food plots. The tree stand (3'x4'with sides and a top, seats, a tree mansion it sits 15' off the ground with the seats the sighting height is about 18'

has been put up. The rifles have been sighted in.
Now the important part- what goes up in the stand with you? Besides- Common sense- rifle, ammo, (one shell chamber and two others?) binoculors. extra clothes to modify if the weather changes, calls, Gps or compass, a book, Cell phone in case of emergency, winde checker, camera, ? . Do you take coffee ( Someone told me coffee has too strong of smell in the woods) or water if you do, do you take a pee bottle?
