10Remember, big bulls don't look up. Treestands are much lighter than they were years ago, and today more hunters are successful at taking trophy-class bulls from tree- stands. Because the big bulls won't look up, if you're hunting watering holes or wallows, consider the possibility of carrying a treestand with you. Then put that treestand up close to the site where you want to hunt.
