How does everyone here hunt?

[DanaM]

Mostly on the ground these days as I seem to have lost my head for heights

Like to still hunt when conditions are right.

Usually on the ground or hidden in a deadfall. I've shot a few deer on the ground with compounds and firearms close up,  but hope to get my first with a stickbow this year, huntin' thru the gun seasons with it like last year.

Postman,
Dead falls make the best ground blinds!!
I use several of them.

Mostly from a tree,about 12 to 15 feet 99% of the time. It gives me time to set and think. As for the Indans,first I ant one and second I suspect they used any means they could to kill something and I am sure it didn't matter much how.

I am one.....well 1/4....and I am with you Pappy...I like to eat them too...and I believe thatWhen you are Hungry ....you will take Game from any Advantage Point possible....the Plains Indians used to run Buffs off of Cliffs....so what so bad about a Tree Stand.........

I like it all.  Terrain, weather, cover and deer movement dictates my hunting method.  Thick stuff with narrow deer trails, I'll be in a tree to hide me and give me better visiability.  BUT, give me a misty day with wet leaves and I'll be a stalkin'.  Last season I took my first deer with a bow.  It was on a narrow ridge maybe 15 yards across.  I was in a treestand otherwise I would have been standing right in the path of the deer with little or no cover.  Later in the season, after leaving my treestand and walking to the house, I spotted a deer heading in my direction.  I guessed where it would cross the drainage from my pond.  I was 12 yards from him when he came up out of the ditch.  He was my second deer with a bow.  It was a compound bow.  BUT, I just finished my hickory bow last week.  I look forward to hunting with her this year.

I've taken a couple from the ground over the years enroute to or from a stand. I like to eat deer and feel like I'm giving them a pretty good advantage by using a self bow. Would like to keep a few advantages in my favor that height provides.

I hunt mostly from natural material ground blinds. Hoping to take my first traditional deer this year. If it gets hard I have a plan. All I have to do is carry the biggest rifle with the biggest scope I have into the woods with me and a 6-7 yard shot wont be a problem. At least thats the way it seems to be every year!

Well I usually get up around an hour before daylight, take a shower and put......Oh!    I usually hunt from a tree stand. If there's no tree where I want to be I'll just hide on the ground.  The best buck I ever killed with a bow, I crawled across a hay field and shot him from my knees.

  I'm usually creeping, crawling, and slipping and sliding,,, oh forgot about wading.

truck, light, gun. na just bsn. depends on the area. i have some spots i hunt from a tree stand, some in a hand made blind, trees grass and stuff. build your own type thing. and a little spot and stalk. just getting into that real heavy. seems more old school. and a heck of a challenge.
