Hunting off the ground
I’ve only been out a few times this year. I set up my Ameristep brickhouse in a blown down tree that gave it pretty good cover. I cut a few limbs and added to the brush in. The first time out with it a couple does walked by and reacted mildly to it. One came back an hour or so later, so I was thinking things were pretty good. Then yesterday a small buck came around from the back side and when he turned the corner around the blow down, he pretty much freaked out and left the area. Not good.
I’m really frustrated with hunting off the ground. I fell 4 years ago and have been using a blind for the last 3. It is just not working well.
Who out there is hunting off the ground. Are you using a blind or natural cover?
If you’re hunting off the ground in natural cover, what type of camo are you wearing?
I’ve been thinking of just sitting in one of these blow downs on a chair and see what happens.
Thanks.
