hmmm, oh well just sit down by a tree and be as still as you can, when the deer walk close draw and shoot them, simple.

well welcome to the family. dont be misled hunting from a tree will not take the challenge out of bowhunting. but there are many pop up ground blinds available. also you can create your own by placing old limbs to make a blind then cut a few that are still green to add cover. you can also purchase camo burlap and stretch it between some trees. good luck and be safe.

bow hunting from the stand, is a challenge if anyone think its easy they would be lying, it takes alot of homework to put a stand in a area where you think a deer will come into bow range for a clean kill. there is nothing wrong still hunting or blind huntingbut then again you will still have to set up a blind within your shooting distance for a clean kill, the tree stand gives you a good overlook over the forest floor

You may want to try killing one from a stand first. It's not as easy as you think.
