Discomfort on Stand keep you alert?

Unread postby Uncle Lou » Sat Sep 27, 2014 10:35 am

I am horrible about adding comfort to my sits.

I have this terrible idea that it keeps me awake and alert. I don't think I have ever slept on stand or even thought about it.

I actually have the stupid idea that the more uncomfortable I am the better I hunt.

Anyone else suffer from this disorder?

I move too much if I am uncomfortable.

I hate trying to sleep in my stand when I'm all uncomfortable.

Ibuprofen/Aspirin = more comfortable sits especially if it's really cold out...

I prefer comfort, but I prefer bucks over comfort. I'm usually fairly comfortable after the walk in.

I am all for staying awake on stand...but not to the extent to make myself uncomfortable on stand. I like to be comfy...it is hard to sit 11 hours if your not comfy.
