More and more recently I see guys are starting to stay on the ground. It is a tribute to the forum community that they are still sticking around because it reflect on the quality of the group as a hold.
I don't see myself hunting on the ground anytime soon simply because I love being in a tree. The view is a big part of the enjoyment for me.
I understand that staying on the ground open up a lot of locations where you cannot find a good tree that meet the hunting scenario. And unless you're setting up a blind, you are a lot more mobile.
BUT if portable tree technology exist, would you still take the advantage of being elevated?
From my understanding, elevation offer view points, hide SOME movement and scent, and some argues that vital hit from an angle produced better blood lost and pooling of blood in the lungs.
