A woodsman that knows what he's doing is gonna stomp around less than most of the guys that run cameras in season. You may be right to the point the old school woodsman might be asked to leave. He'll be in the woods killing the studs, makes for jealous people. When hunting clubs or public land you gotta know how to outsmart the deer and the other hunters. There's ways to do both. I'm glad I only have to outsmart deer now.

Most clubs now a days would frown on a member stomping around in the woods hunting the "old way." Hunting the old way on public land is really a hit and miss situation. IMO most deer killed on public land by folks hunting the old way are killed while fleeing from some other hunter hunting the old way. Also, with the numbers of hunters out these days, who are just a little trigger happy, its very dangerous. So I am just sort of wondering, other than private land, where can one hunt the old way???????



"Why do you ask"?

Too many people spend money they don't have , on things they don't need, to impress people they don't know.
