I believe it is apart of deer hunting. I think you have more of an advantage shooting a deer sitting 20 feet in the air waiting for them to walk under you to shoot them, than to try to enter their secure bedding area and shoot them. I walk corn every year with my bow. It is very tough to sneak up to a deer but once you've done it, it is veryrewarding. My biggest buck taken, I snuck up on while he was bedded with a doe on a fence line. It took mealmost 3hours crawling on my belly to get three yards behind him and get to my knees and take him. That was the most challenging hunt that I have ever had, and the most rewarding.
that sounds like a very exciting adventure there. good job.
