I like still hunting alot with a gun, but with a bow, the chances of getting close enough to a buck with out him seeing you, then drawing back and getting a clear shot(no branches in the way) is a slim chance. Still hunting is great when the deer shut down such as when there is abundance of food making travling far not nescessary or to much pressure, but unless there is snow or its raining where I live, the leaves make quiet nearly impossible so I stand hunt till then. I see it this way, if a deer walks into my stand, there is a great chance I'll see him before he sees me and with a bedded buck, they usually bed so that if I'm anywhere near them, they'll probably see me especially when it's noisy, then that buck leaves his primary bedding area and moves over to someone elses stand which is no good. So it's kind of situational.
