Default Deer Hunting

What does everyone hunt over during archery season (bait if you can, scrapes, rubs, trails, food plots, etc.).

Do you recommend hunting from a stand or from a blind or ground?

I prefer hunting out of a Stand. I personally like the improved field of view. Although some spots blind is the ticket.

I spend the biggest part of my hunting time in pinch points or funnels.

I really like hunting in blind just because your a little more hidden but you really have to double up on scent blocker. I also like the tree stand because you can see more.

I hunt corn fields, in the timber where there is a small cleraing, or on the edge of the timber line. Those are my favorite spots to be.

I prefer a tree stand... I hunt near buck bedding unless its rut, then funnels, and pinch points near or between doe bedding.

I love the treestand and will hunt where ever I find the sign... Perfer woods/timber, but a corn field will do..

I like hunting fields but most of my stands sit just inside the woods so I can a litttle bit of both. last year i used scents during the rut and called all season (grunts/bleats) and I hunted over corn but this year i have two stands over mineral sites/trails and i have a blind over a foodplot I also hope to get a hangon for a corn field.

I use a climbing tree stand so I can move depending upon the wind...I like to hunt white oaks that are falling next to cutovers...I also like persimmon trees during bow season...

I mostly spot and stalk here in NW Montana, but also have several ground blinds that get set up for the pinch points or funnels.

I use treestands 95 percent of the time, mostly hangons put up ahead of time. I will get in a blind more this coming year than last though.

I hunt over fields and food plots more lately. At the cabin, for most of my hunting career, I hunted and still hunt trails and pinch points.
