In the areas where I hunt, you park, get out the spotting scope, glass the countryside, and if nothing promising is visible, you drive elsewhere. When you finally find something, you get yourself into a position that will intercept the deer, or sneak over the ridge and shoot. I choose my shots wisely. I make sure that I can drive up to the animal after the shot. The days of running 50' of chain and 300 feet of rope to haul them out of the bottoms are over.
