Hey Jimmy S, good question. Here in Manitoba we hunt both ways, lots of ag land that we can sit and we have a ton of BIG bush, totally different expectations and mentality. My first 10 years of deer hunting was big bush hunting, learned a lot about patience and deer movement, we would sit for a week solid and see maybe 3 or 4 deer some years. Since there was no food source they were traveling to, you had to be prepared to sit on travel corridors, or search out bedding areas and sneak into the perimeter of those areas and be patient, rattling and grunting improved your odds if you knew there was a buck in the area, if you could locate an old logging cut it also improved your odds, gained some distance you could see...for those who are patient there can also be a big reward!!
