I can not speak for Kansas however, I do all my hunting by stalking..Up here it has been a hard year so far because of low deer populations in my area.
Bucks only regardless of what you choose to hunt with. ( bow, gun, blabkpowed, or crossbow ) So it has been quite dificult to do. However I have had some decent chances at a couple of does and missed a big spike horn. hunting from the ground can be very tricky to do to say the least. But the rewards are great.. One of the biggest things is practicing so you can guess the range better. It is different than sitting in a tree stand with your marks set up so you know what range the deer are at. Being as quite as possable with short walks and stopping to listen to everything around you that may be moving. Is very important as wellto have agood cover sent or some deer sent on a drag type thing hanging about knee high. I also like to set and wait once I get into an area that appears active. I like setting where it is fairly open against a tree with a few saplings around the base of it. At this point remaining as still as possable as deer look for movement more than anything. I hope this helps you out..
