Buck Alley, I'm not lying to you. I believe bowhunting from a tree is simpler than gun hunting. I stopped bowhunting because I was scared silly hunting from a tree. When I tried hunting from a ground, I couldn't do it. I'm just not that good of a hunter to bowhunt from a ground. But, when I was up in a tree, I passed up several several easy shots because mostly I would not shoot a doe or a button buck. This was several years ago when killing a doe was a no-no. I'm going to try bowhunting again and force myself up a tree. Personally, I know several bowhunters that tell me that, from a tree, if you're not afraid to get up there, is easier that gun hunting (shotgun where I am from in NY).
