Still Hunting or Stalking big game is a method I like to use when the conditions permit it. Quiet walking is a must, light rainy, snowy days are good. Sometimes windy conditions that make stand hunting difficult or dangerous is a good time also. I do find still hunting requires more patients and attention then stand hunting. Take your time. What I do is try to have a set course or idea of area I want to walk through. I don't do it where I stand hunt. Walk very quietly, and slow taking time to look around while at it. I see too many guys spending time looking at there feet. I look at the ground for few feet in front of me for small branches, and walk toe to heal (Indian style) for several feet before looking at the ground again. I stop after walking for several yds, no certain distance. Just whatever looks good or if make some noise. Look until feel confident nothings in sight or around. Sometimes I spend 5-15 mins before move again. Its best to use cover, don't stick to open areas, move among the tree's, and brush for concealment. You'll especially need it if spot a deer, and need to adjust for a shot or make your way closer. Use binoculars to glass too. Give it a whirl, what you got to loose!!
