I like to hunt in box stands, with a comfortable reclining chair (for naps), windows you can close, binoculars, rangefinder, propane heater, drinks, snacks and big plastic jug to pee in. I'll sit in a box stand all day sometimes during the rut. My favorite way to hunt though when the weathers not too bad is to scout around for some fresh deer tracks. I look for BIG tracks and if they're the only tracks that's better. The next day I'll set up my 3 legged tripod with a swivel seat downwind at least 100 yds, from the tracks and hunt there for a few days. My 2nd favorite way is to find good spot and put a folding back in the brush a little downwind from that spot and hunt with my crossbow. I've had deer walk right by me many times.
