I prefer backpack hunts. Hopefully, I can continue to do so as long as my body holds up.

Wow! That is a tough question. At one time it was not hunting unless I bivy packed way into no mans land. I have learned to enjoy it all now. Horses, bivy topacking, base camps is all just as enjoyable. Can not stand the thought of road hunting, yuk! Archery has always been my favorite. So if I have a bow in hand I am having a good time.
I would have to say a backpack style hunt would be my preference, but I love them all!

Solo back pack bivy hunts have been the most memorable. Still love my comfy wall tent hunts though.
+1 for me. It's nice to get packed in and save your legs and take more gear than you need, but I really enjoy backpack camping/hunting.

In elk and deer country this often becomes a two man backpacking tent deep in the wilderness. On the other hand, I still enjoy taking my tow behind camper into those units with good access roads, where I enjoy all the comforts of home. Many types of camps are excellent, and the point is to be out hunting, not wishing you were back in camp.

..and the winner is, any ol' way you can get into the woods is the best way!!!!
I second that. I'm working real hard to get in the best shape I can and hope to reward myself with another memorable high country solo hunt this Fall!Quote:
