I know this question has been asked before. But if you have a good stand location and have good entry and exit routes how many days in a row do you hunt it and if you do not see action when do you move on to another spot? I have numerous spots to hunt depending on the wind direction of course and usually do not hunt a stand more than 2 day in a row at the most. Sometimes I feel like I am bouncing around too much though and are missing opportunities.

I think it depends on your goals. By your avatar it looks like you've killed at least one good buck so if you want to kill another you'd be best to have multiple spots for any given wind as to not burn up your spot. If all you want is any ol' deer keep hunting the same spot. I like to mix it up daily unless I just KNOW big boy is going to come by. I'll hunt a stand 2 days in a row tops but I like to mix it up because I get tired of looking at the same scene all morning or afternoon or whatever so two sits in a row is my max.

IMO, as long as you're not getting picked off and you know you have good sign and the wind is good, hunt away!

If I'm hunting a spot where I have to scout around, make a bunch of noise, and probably spook deer, I might hunt a tree two days in a row then give it a week or so to rest.
At my own land, I've got several stands that are 40 yards or less from a road, my driveway, or my yard. I can usually go straight in and out and rarely spook a deer, and not leave much ground scent behind. If I feel like my hunts are low impact and the cams or my own observations are showing activity in those spots, I'll hunt them over and over. If I do get winded or spotted, I'll rest that stand for a while as well.

Moving your stand just 20yds can make it a fresh sit.

IF you have a low impact entry and exit route hunt when wind in favor. I think many guys over think it.
