I "usually" have access to one amazing property through invite during deer season. However, I only get to hunt the property for one long weekend and it is too far of a drive to scout. There are only a few ground box blinds set up on food plots and if you want to hunt somewhere else it is up to you. I have a popup blind that does me well but there is one spot on the property that is down by a large stream, corner of the property, big tall trees all around, and just looks like prime deer habitat. I would love to get up in the trees with my bow this coming season and try my luck in this "honey hole". P.S. I killed my biggest buck to date last year right on the outside of it by dumb luck.
HERE IS MY QUESTION, I have zero experience hunting out of a tree stand or saddle, nor do I own any. I like the idea of a saddle being lightweight and mobile which is why I am leaning in that direction. However, is a saddle so mobile and easy enough to set up that I could walk into this area blind and in the dark (first morning hunt of the weekend) and safely get up in a tree without spooking everything around me? Realistically, does this setup require some set up or is it pretty easy to get up in a random tree quickly?
