OK - newbie-ish question: What's your favorite method for passing multiple hours in/on a stand, particularly when deer hunting/watching?
I'd consider reading, but I'm afraid of how much noise it really takes to scare off the deer. Likewise, I'm a fan of audiobooks/podcasts for drive time and can imagine listening to them some as the sound level should be consistent and low enough to avoid tipping anything off. However, I'm concerned that even that level of sound, coupled with the earphones blocking my own hearing some, would be a problem.
What do you guys do or suggest? FWIW, I plan on the longer sits being in a largish platform surrounded by some camo burlap.
Thanks!
