Question, how are you guys getting up in trees if you can’t hang stands? Just climbing? How far off the ground do you get?

Never been there but looking at where it is, on the lower Laguna Madre, I'm guessing you would have to bring your own tree?

A couple guys wore harnesses for some that I showed them, if that tells you much. Other trees just a few feet, which is all you need. Don't count on finding many in most places

Those of you asking what kinda stand , is HD best luck with 6-8’ aluminum tripod. Why aluminum ? Because you have to carry these stands miles if you wanna go back in there.

There were zero climb-able trees in the north end where I was hunting. Zero. Any tree that had potentially weight-bearing branches also had 3-inch stilletto knives sticking out of its trunk and every branch. Plus here's more fun: a swarm of Africanized honey bees invaded and passed through the little area I was sitting in, and swarmed into and then out of the few taller trees around me. I was pretty frightened, knowing that if the swarm turned in my direction there wasn't a whole lot I was going to be able to do about it. I just sat as quietly and as motionless as possible until the swarm moved on.

Unless you weigh 200 plus, then your better off climbing the fence post. Not many trees in the good areas will support that weight. If you can get off the ground 6' or better, that would help. They hardly look up. I have had a spike and doe walk under my 6' tripod in the past. Lightweight tripods are always the best to take in and set up.

I brought a Millenium T-100 which is an all aluminum tripod but only used it twice. I found that a chair brushed in gave me better options and allowed me to be more mobile. Hauling it in wasn’t an issue since I had a mtb bike and a custom made bike cart.

That's how I have hunted for years. No blind or tripod just a compact chair with a seatback for comfort. The chair fits inside my back pack and my bow is strapped on top of it. Completely hands free. Pack in light and hopefully if everything goes well pack out heavy.
