3toe,
I describe my hunting technique as abush-hunting (choose a high-odds location for deer travel and ambush them as they move through on their daily routine), so I have no problem with that title.
Personally, I like the longer visual ranges of being in a treestand, the fact my scent is elavated a bit above the ground, and that I'm slightly above a deer's line-of-sight while in a treestand, hence I cna get away with a little more movement.
Ditto, I'd rather be up a tree, if I know where ones "using", or on a hub when things are rockin' during breeding. I'm OK on the ground slipping and stump sitting, after a rain. I'm way too loud when the leaves are like rice crispys ( snap ,crackle, pop). I love slipping around in the snow with the whites on.
