I do mostly deer drives with a small group of friends. But if I was hunting by myself, spot and stalk would be the way to go.

I choose stand hunting but do all.

Truthfully, my hunting this year will break down as follows:

Still hunting: 60%
Ground standhunting: 35%
Other: 5%.

I hunt too many different habitat types to stick on one style. Whatever works. In big woods, you're going to still hunt more. In funnel/farm country, stands take the lead. I'm in MT.

I gun hunt out of an elevated, heated enclosed blind. I will also hunt of the ground or a tree stand during gun season. I don't like drives and am not really good enough to stalk. I don't like shooting at moving or alerted deer. I prefer the snyper technique myself.

Bow hunting is done from a ladder stand or climber, I would try a pop up blind and have done it off the ground as well.

I hunt southern michigan in the shotgun only areas on private land. Either an inline or a dedicated slug gun (H&R Slug Gun Deluxe, first year with it).

still hunting is more favored choice, but spot and stalk comes in a close second.

i have never used a stand or blind. we do havetwo deer stands on our place but i've never used them. if you concider a ford f150 as a blind then i guess i have used a blind. my deer last season, i was shooting over the hood ofa pick-up.

Spot& Stalk eastern Washington. Nothing funner! Sometimed its stalk and spot. other times it's stalk and surprise/ambush/wake up sleeping deer in their beds.Sometimes, (mostly evenings) we will set up in a likely place and wait for them to come out while remaining hidden in some natural blind.

Ground blinds. NE Oklahoma. I would do some stand hunting, but the guy who leases the land where I hunt prefers that I do not place stands.

stand hunting is about all i am doin this year,,last year i was on the ground 90% of the time,,,central Illinois

RE: Hunting Style
 
You forgot to include tracking in the poll. My time is about equally divided between stillhunting and hunting from natural ground blinds when the ground is bare. If snow is on the ground, I spend most of my time tracking.

Here in nothern Oklahoma-southern Kansas, I usually sit leaning against a tree...sometimes use a tree stand, like now during bow season.
