YEP! Crossroads of 2 funnels leading from a swamp and some land up on a hill. I sit there and let everyone else push them to me.

Oh yeah! I have one specific tree that I have used my climber in since 1996 and it's a nice pinch-point where a number of deer come and go thru. In another hunting location/property, I have a decent honey hole, but still working on perfecting my set-up. Some days I have good activity there while other days/weeks it seems no deer are there?!?!

Same tree in PA for about 25 years now and I've killed I don't remember how many bucks including one nice 10 pt. I inherited this stand from an older gentleman who retired down south and he hunted it for 20+ years before me and often got his PA buck. I replace the wood as needed.
In NJ, I hunt on top of a rock mound in a ground blind. I'm as high up as any climbing stand and the deer never see death coming their way We call that stand the Prudential (get a piece of the rock). No climbing yet I'm still up in the air above the deer.

We have lock ons in 11 trees on private property. One particular stand is our doe stand. Although we have shot bucks out of it we primarily use it for the early season doe. We can go there any time during the season to tag a doe. Most years I have my doe by 6:30AM on opening day then Im clear to go after my buck [up]
