you have to be wary of burning out this stand site.5 days in one spot is too much IMHO.try moving closer(on either end) to the trail he's using .he may be hanging till the light is in his favor and by moving closer you may get a shot,theres also the chance you may spook him,otherwise try waiting for the rut to gear up and he'll stop thinking in terms of safety and instead ,breeding,good luck remain scent free ,nose to the wind or cross wind
