While in stand, waiting for a deer, how do you hold your bow? I have a couple stands where I need to stand up the entire time, no chair. After a half hour or so, my old surgically repaired shoulders ache from holding the bow. I normally leave my release hooked up, and help hold the weight of the bow with my right hand on the release, then my left hand on the bow, and hold it against my belly, but even then, my shoulders get so sore. I use to use a screw in hook to screw into the tree to hang my bow on, but then I have a lot of movement to grab my bow, and hook my release up, then draw back the bow, and I have been busted several times, so I try to keep the bow in my hands.
Back at home, I primarily hunt public land, and I often hunt on the ground, because prime spots are often used up, so you have to have several options to go. Again, I am stuck holding my bow, and my shoulders are very sore after 30 minutes of holding it. I am the only one with bad shoulders that runs into this? I have never seen anyone else talk about it, so I assumed there is a easy solution, but I havent figured it out yet.
