It's going to get cold, and I just don't do well in the cold ...not enough circulation.
I know I won't be able to sit long in any of my treestands. In the hilton, I can use my heater buddy, but the deer don't come to my plot during the day very often. As it gets colder, will they come more often?
I can stay home or sit in the hilton; I think these will be my options.

evening sits should be your best option if your hilton is on a plot or between bedding and the plot.

Absolutely, hunt the Hilton. They will hit those food plots for an easy meal, the colder it gets the food gets scarcer. Can't kill from the couch. I would guess the best times are morning and evening but as you know they can and will come anytime.

I have decided to move the hilton to the bottom land and rename it the Trump Tower. This will be no easy task (not the renaming), but it will go down that hill somehow. Getting it across two creeks and back where I want it, well???
I was leisurely looking around today when checking my traps, and found a great spot to move it. Had it not been for Trey's deer, I wouldn't have known that the deer travel that way. I don't know that I had ever even looked in that area. I tried to stay off that bottom anymore than necessary, and had not wondered back in that corner. This area is where they move to the bigger woods on that end of the bottom. I didn't know where they were coming from when I would see them at the other end of the bottom. I had always thought they were coming from the bed, and some do.
I may never hunt my food plot, and it certainly wouldn't have done any good up until now, not secure enough. I will move my 20' X-stand to the plot, and with the addition of corn next year, it might be good.
Isn't it funny that we will start planning for next year before the season is finished.

Well I was gonna say today is the day to hunt the hilton. Pick a spot where the wind is majority always on your side to get to it!. What county are you in? if timing works I'd be glad to lend you a hand. Moving it, or building a new one...
