I like to hunt from tree stands. Earlier in my hunting I used to still hunt lots...... rabbit hunting. When I started to hunt deer I found I still enjoyed this style of hunting. I generally wait until there is a day where the wind is blowing too hard to sit in my tree stands and then still-hunt. The wind covers most of your sound and I have even had several chances at the same deer...... even w/muzzleloader. They just can't fugure out where the danger is and so move off more slowly, last year I got w/in 25yds of a real nice 9pt buck. He never gave me a shot opportunity, we had a staring duel...... me w/one leg in the air. By the time he decided to turn so he wasn't facing me...... he was gone[:@]
