RE: Stalking and still hunting
Dave,
At the risk of not appearing as a true traditionalist, I would suggest the following. I too get bored sitting in a stand all day. What I would suggest is a modified stalking technique. I will start in a stand (Tree or ground) and carry a Nifty Seat. When I tire of the view, I get up and "Stalk" to another location maybe 200 yards away. I sit and watch for a while till I need another change and repeat the process. Anything you can do to stay in the woods will improve your chances of killing a deer. When I scout an area for the first time, I look for good ground blind areas near trails and that's where I move to. It may not be true stalking but it does work. Dick
