Preferred Method...
Now ground rules first! No arguing against other methods, jsut post your favorite method to hunt any biggame animal in North America.
Mine- I prefer to spot-and-stalk or to hike all over the mountain in hopes of an encounter. to me this is not a boring practice and it is a great physical activity.
Play nice....

I mostly stand/treeclimber hunt. Still hunting and ground stands are great whenever they are possible too! Its a great feeling to have deer walk so close to you that you could touch them! It is just not feasible to ground hunt where I am hunting now!

I'm partial to the bow hunting from a stand. But I did sit in a homemade ground blind a couple times this year and I must say it was quite an experience. I had a young 6 ptr. 7 feet in front of me. Could have got him but I decided to let him grow. Also had some does in close. I think I'm gonna start doing some more ground hunting. I like the challenge and the intensity of having a deer at eye lever just yards away!

I've stalked a little bit. It's real exciting when you walk up on one sleeping. I like to see how close I can get. Unfortunately, it's usually a doe with a buck in the bushes.....yep, you guessed it "busted!"
I love tree stands though. I have a few set stands, but my favorite is a portable climber. That way you can get way up there and see a ton of action all around you. It's great for taking pictures, afternoon naps too........zzzzzzzzzz
If I know there are hunters in the general area, I'll sit and let them work for me ("good things come to those who wait").
