I ground hunt also. And the tip on the camo burlap is a good one. I used it last year and it worked well. This year I didn't buy one and I'm sorry I didn't because I haven't gotten a decent shot on a deer yet from the ground. I'm like you, Scent-loc suits are out of my budget and I don't own a portable treestand because there are not many trees on my place that you could use one on. I use cedar trees a lot. I find a big one downwind of where I think the deer are going to be coming from. I then crawl under it like a turkey hunter and clip off enough limbs to open up shooting lanes. The cut limbs I break up because the smell of fresh cedar helps cover my scent. If you don't have cedars, try and evergreen. Provided your camo has a green base to it.
