I was scouting on Saturday for the upcoming rifle season and all of the deer I saw were in bottoms that had wide open areas. The deer would bed about midway up the ridge and walk down into the clearings to feed. There was movement and they were in more open areas so what Lamehawk said seems to jive.

And we need to face the fact that what has worked for one person my not work for another.

I agree. Each one of us has to take into consideration the differences in our hunting areas.

Lamehawk,I agree with you. Also when it's windy or rainy it is a great time to slip around and sneak up on something. I've killed a few on foot,one time I got within 15 yards of a giant buck in Missouri for over 15 minutes it never knew I was there. Unfortunately it was one day before bow season.
