i like the ground, i hunt outta ladderstands on private property thats it, on the ground allows you to see for country and animals and keeps hunting fun and different from sitting in a tree for 8 hours..

I cant afford a treestand so Ive ground hunted for 8 years now. Last year was my first stick bow hunt and a buck walked right toword me within 10 feet. when I drew he turned to run down hill a I miss calculated the shoot and missed but that was the first time in 8 years that Ive been within 50 yards of a deer in season. And I think its all from primitive archery. Joel

How do I hunt? As honorably and as often as possible!!! LOL I like treestands and ground hunting.Whatever works for the are I'm hunting.

PeteC:
Hey Tommy,how are ya? You might want to check your regs again in Anderson Co.,(or was it Freestone?),because, this past season,and every season for the last few years,you can take one buck,and 2 does during archery season.It's the same as in my county.It's changing next season however,to the 13" inside spread for one buck,then a second buck with at least one un-branched antler,and 2 does.I think this will happen in Anderson and Freestone as well,but check the new regs when they come out. As for huntin' east Texas,with our terrain,soil,plant species,(many of them are wearin' thorns),and our wary whitetails,stalking into bow range is not an easy job,but, I still try it where I can.I use homemade,hang -on type stands where it is not feasible to still-hunt. God Bless

99% of the time I hunt from a tree stand...usually less than 15 foot high.  Also the way most people I know in this area hunt.

 But for this coming season I have become very interested in a ghillie suit. :-\   Would really like to make that method work!!!  Sure would like to hear something good or bad about them by anyone that has used a ghillie?? ???

  Have killed deer on the ground but been quite a few years.
