Treestand Height

The optimum height for a treestand is 20 feet. This keeps our feet about 18 feet above ground-level, which is the distance necessary to prevent the thermals from drifting are scent down to the deer.

Unfortunately, not all terrain allows for stands of this height, but whenever possible 20 feet of elevation should be our goal.
