What if you woke up tomorrow, with only what you thanked God for today ???

One of the hazards of blind or treestand hunting. We've come up with a solution for the treestand. We wear a velcro headband and attach another piece to the tree. If we feel like a nap we just lean back until the headband contacts the velcro on the tree and nod off. Keeps us upright. Makes a hell of a racket when you wake up though but we're working on that. 8<)

How do you not snooze?  Warm sun, peaceful, quiet, out in God's country, what can be more relaxing.

I agree with BCWV,my summit stand is as comfortable as my recliner.About ten in the morning with the sun shining on you its hard to keep your eyes open.
Its never crowded on the "extra mile"!

I beleive it was the year before last when I noded right out of my tree stand. That was a rude awakening.  :eek:

Nothing better than a nap in the blind. I also like to sit on the ground with my back up against a tree. I can totally understand Rip Van Winkle

One time in my younger days I found a tree with a big crooked limb, almost like a cradle. After climbing the tree I was soon asleep on the big limb. I don't know for sure how long I slept but that rain sure woke me up. I don't know why the thunder never.   :banghead:

Nod off ,I wake myself up snoring some times while calling.
You can hop but you can't hide.
If it was not for rabbits I would never get a buck.
Yip yipahooooo yipyipyip.

It is pretty bad when you rize from a nap in a blind to be stiring a turkey eye to eye! I even had to stalk a buck after he had walk through my shooting lanes once. Working hard and hunting hard for weeks on end is taxing after awhile. I get more naps in during the hunts than any time of year.  :bigsmyl:

Some of the best naps i have evr had have bee outdoors and now it seems,in a ghillie.

YORNOC

In Northern Alberta I was in a tree. I went up for a month to help a guide set up camp and bait, three weeks of work in exchange for a week of bear hunting.( Nice to be young with no responsibilities) I was exhausted and had caught pnemonia. My first day in the stand I must have dozed off. I awoke to a bear rolling around on its back! It had eaten all the beaver carcasses, and I never heard a thing. I made the shot and got myself a nice Alberta blackie, the funny part is when I looked at my watch, I was asleep for OVER THREE HOURS in a treestand. Hows that for a nod off!

Hey Yornoc - best so far, and best reward!

Based on what I'm hearing, I need to let myself go ahead and nap if I really want to get that big buck that's been eluding me.  

I just worry that the snoring will scare away every living thing within a mile!

I fell asleep at the base of a tree many years ago. Woke to find a buck about 25 yrds away sneaking through a pine stand. Took him easily. He had no clue I was there.
