For those of you that still have man cards reading is an acceptable way to pass the time,Rouark,Hemingway or Capstick are all great authors and their writings as enjoyable as anything thats ever beenwritten.
A sunny October day in an oak tree with a great book is really hard to beat.

Good grief guys, I don't read or text on stand. I just watch, and watch, and watch. I've got to get something off my chest. I am a text virgin. I've never done it. Boy do I feel better. I do carry a cell with me, but I don't text or play games. Hell, I don't even know if I can play games on my cell phone. I do dose a little in between watches. Dang, that sounds boring, but I love it.

RE: All day sits...how do you do it?
I sit all day on stand.....no walking around etc....early days of Oct are tougher than the later dates....or even by Nov, daylight really seems to wind down by then, so its an hour or two less by then. During the rut I try to stay on stand all day, and even some other dsays, really the first and last few hrs of a day aren't bad, its the 4-6hrs of midday....does get boring at times, less something comes around, wish I were more successful on those days, seems to be a waste when nothing produces, but oh well, gotta try.
I think this year i may breakup more days, less theyre in the rut, also plan to maybe hunt the rut, pre rut more, soless in early Oct more in late oct, so maybe less days, but hunting harder/smarter?

If you've got a cell phone with a full charge - and you don't get cold - it's actually pretty easy... Not to mention relaxing.

RE: All day sits...how do you do it?
I'm one of those guys who can sit ALL day between a rock and a hard place. It's just me I guess, but if I have a bottle of water, a couple small pull-off-top cans of something to eat, I'm there for the duration. I dress for the weather, and usually have a pretty good location that deer are using which helps. I have been known to nod off a time or two, but I use a harness for just that concern. I can get plumb cozy on a small seat without much padding!
