1. Is it feasible to sit all day in a ladder stand?
2. The Buck Bomb (Doe in Estrus)....is it good, what is your take on it?
3. How long before morning should you be in your stand before daybreak?

Thanks for all your responses!

1. Are you nuts?

3. Hour is about perfect

Depends on movement
Save your money
30-1hr depends on how skidish your deer are and how you get to your stand

The more you hunt the more you'll see, period.
Most of that stuff they sell, is made just to sell.
Time depends on your approach... thick stuff, longer in my opinion; using a vehicle/4x4 etc, even longer... if I am walking 400 yards or more, I like an hour before...

1. More time in the stand, rifle better the odds of getting your deer. Can't get him from camp.
2. Maybe/maybe not confused2 Never hurts to try it.
3. 1 hour or so.

Get some buck crack instead.

Ok I am sorry, just thought it would be funny.
