Multi trunk, zip tie limbs...that's how I hunt from low stands.  I sill find higher is better though in most cases. I'd like to be lower, but in Michigan, about 20 feet gets you in the zone. Lower and the old does just love finding you.  Illinois and indiana, I've gotten away with 12 foot.  A whole different game.

Somebody needs to shoot some does.

Funny about the cedars being brought up. We don't really have cedar trees here in pa but we have hemlocks. And my favorite stands are in hemlocks.

I like all sorts of tree stands, so this "trick" or what not isn't specifically aimed towards stands closer to the ground but....

I really like to take old fake Christmas tree's that people throw out, and use them to tie behind the stand/on the ladder if that's what you're using.

Many people throw out fake trees every year so there's usually plenty to go around.
