A couple times a season I'll spend all day in the woods and take a couple cat naps on a log or something. I feel like that's what I should do every day

I'm been getting well deserved rest this weekend. Had a 2 hour nap on the stand today, and woke up too a raccoon trying to get in box stand with me.

I like when you doze off and you think you fell asleep for like 45-minutes but it's only been 3-min!

Or when you wake up to big buck in your shooting lane.

I'm too nervous I'll miss out on something I try not to nap. But it happens from time to time

Best way to keep my son quiet and still....tell him to take a nap and I'll wake him when something comes out.

I killed my first deer at age 12 right after waking up from a nap. Woke up and spike was about 30 yards away from my stand folded him in his tracks. Remember it like it was yesterday. I was pumped!

I have and I will when one hits me. I love being in the woods and love to hunt but there is no place I'd rather close my eyes and drift off than my favorite place to be. If one gets by me so be it. My time in the woods is one of the few things I'll cherish at the end of my days

nothing is more relaxing to me than being in a box stand on a clear, frosty morning...when the sun comes up and starts to warm the stand up, I can't keep my eyes open.

Nothing knocks me out like a slow coon hunt on a cold night when I have nothing to do the next day. I love turning the dog loose and laying on a log for about a half hour while he works and dosing off to get woke up by a big long bawwwwww off in the dark.

The woods are awesome at night. It's when all the good stuff is happening.

I'll try and get to my stand early in the evening just so I can get a nap in.

Mornings... If it's slow after 8ish i'll allow myself to doze off. Gotta stay in the stand till 9, so just as soon grab a little nap.

I fell asleep in a box Stan one evening and woke up at 9pm to my FIL knocking on the door looking for me. They didn't think it was as funny as I did
