I was going to see if anyone had any tips on hunting in thick pine trees. Seems like they're always full of bushes and honeysuckle vines can't see 10 foot.
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.

Worth the watch. This guy is entertaining. All the shooting starts at about 1:20. It's even got slo mo for you. The Stick Trick I may have to hoop me a log over in some pines and give this a try!

It depends on the age of the trees. If its a plantation and the trees are too small to climb, I like to still hunt them. They bed in them and on windy drizzly days you can walk thru them and actually walk up on a group of deer bedded together. I carry a shotgun with buckshot when I try this.
Thomas Jefferson. The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Life is too short to only hunt and fish on weekends!
If being a dumbass was fatal some of you would be on your death bed!

I don't think you are on the same page as to THICK pines. We have 400 acres worth that are so thick you can't walk thru them at all, I've tried. It's bad enough that I shot a doe with a bow this year and she went 40 yards, it took me 20 minutes to get in there and over an hour to get her out. Our were planted in 06 and haven't been thinned or burned yet

Sometimes you can climb and see into them, sometimes a ground blind and see under/through them. Either way set up on the down wind side where you can see as many trails as possible. Bucks will work that side and scent check the whole thicket for does. As always, watch how you enter and exit your stand.
