Primitive and traditional hunting?
Barrage:
I hear you Jimmy, I also don't use any electronics to find, scout, aid or attract animals, not that I have a problem with it if you do. And I agree that becoming a better hunter is far better than all the gadgets in the world. I guess what I was getting at is that part of becoming a better hunter is spending time in the field, the more the better, and that's something that not everyone can always do.

I guess I have to say that I use my trail cam for "scouting" but that doesn't always aid me...Ive got pictures of a 160 class 5x6 and 5 other bucks on the property and I only wish that meant I got to see them...cuz I haven't seen a buck all season....I guess I just like looking at the pictures more than anything...ive got pictures of deer, turkeys, squirrels, coons, rabbits, badgers, coyotes and acouple red-tailed hawks going after the squirrels...just interesting to see whats going on when you're not around i guess. But I do agree with you on feeders...you can't bait in Nebraska...

True. But how many people get to hunt how and as much as they want? I hunt from the ground and don't have any gadgets to help me, but I've yet to put a tag on an arrowed deer or turkey.
Truth is, alot of people just don't have the time/energy/ambition to make it even harder. How you hunt is a personal thing, and in the end you just have to do what makes YOU happy. So long as it's legal, there isn't alot to be said. Hey, a wooden bow and a treestand is better than a compound and a lazer range finder in my book.

My chosen way to hunt is use my selfbow, homemade wooden arrows,quiver. I love to stillhunt, but, where I live now I only have access to very small track of land. There are signs of hogs having been there before however the only feasible way to hunt the area is to bait the hogs in. I don't think I'm taking a cheap shot as It's either that or no hunting at all.
