[QUOTE="Boll Weevil, post: 4974804, member: 10006"] And I don't mean just hunting your way into a stand and hunting your way out. I mean dedicated hunts slipping through the woods, maybe with binoculars in hand, with a favorable wind/conditions, scouring the landscape looking for the telltale twitch of an ear or flick of a tail. I seem to recall when I was younger, way more folks (at least in my hunting circles) dedicated at least some of their time to stillhunting. I recall one uncle who killed so many old bucks out of their beds it was far more than coincidental or lucky...that man was a stone cold stillhunting killer. Remember the Benoits up in Maine who would track deer in the snow back in the day? Fred Bear and Ishi sneaking up on critters with stickbows? I don't know...maybe it's slowly dying with the oldtimers as kids are most often taught to sit and wait in a stand or blind. What % of your time is dedicated to slipping along seeking your quarry?
