hold the leaves long after the limb is cut.


I've noticed some trees are better at this than others. And it seems every branch hold leaves longer if its cut than the regular Fall cycle. If you ever look up into a tree thats lost all its leaves and notice one branch still has its brown leaves its always broken from a storm.

Pretty sure beech trees hold their leaves a long time even after turning brown from the Fall.

For bow hunting, I usually look for a tree where I can climb 15 to 20 feet up. If the tree does not have good cover, I often use 3 or 4 limbs on the "foot" part of the stand to help add cover.

I will watch along the road I drive in on to see where I can find good branches to use. It only takes a few minutes in the morning to cut the limbs and they can be tied off to the the stand to carry them while walking.

If I am going to hunt the same tree in the next few days, I will leave the "cut" branches hanging on a tree limb to use again.
