so the age old question. hunting from a tree stand/ ground blind. or spot and stalk?

I am going to be partaking in both this season they both are ethical and effective ways to harvest an animal in my opinion.

Try all of them . I like to hunt out of a tree stand in archery season and some of rifle. Ground blinds work well on and in fields. For turkey hunting. If you use a ground blind in deer season. Make sure you place the blind out a week or two. Before the start of the season .Deer will notice something new in their environment the size of a blind. I also like to Stalk in rifle season. More so in the later part. When the deer tend to move very little. When they are in higher pressure areas. Climbing tree stands work great. When hunting new land and you happen to come across really good sign. Find a straight tree and climb.

treestand if u move a little or go to put your gun up they will see you if u r in a blind i like tree stands cause they give me more freedom to move a little when im in a very uncofrontible pose

Nothing like stalking for a true hunt. You just can't always do it.

i sit in a stand most of the time in bow season by food sourses to get a close shot and stalk a little in bow but not a lot and during riffle i stalk the whole season i just dont like sitting for long periods of time so i rather look for sighn and go to the animals rather than the animals coming to me

I sit in a stand most of the time, but I get a little antsy sometimes and I decide to stalk around. Tree stand has come to be the best way, but ground blinds are just as good. There all good imho!

I think it may be very convenient. You can easily compare prices in different countries and find your dream hunting. Your opinion is highly needed!
