Depends on where I'm going and how fast I want to get there.  Most of the time I walk. 

If I need to get deeper in the local woods, I'll take my quad to the edge of the woods, then walk.

On my recent Elk hunt, we rode horses and that's a pretty good way to travel, once the sore spots go numb... ;D

Boats, horses, or walking, depends on the hunt.

30 minute ride in an F250.  If the property were a lot closer than 35 miles, biking might have been an option.

I also have a gmc Z71 4x4 she will get me to most places in the hunting areas are close enough that I only have to walk a couple miles are so..I hardly hunt edible animals any more and try to just git after the predators around here..
my huntin rifle is safe from confiscation only while my battle rifle protects it.

Uh Jamadog, the kind of "hunt'n" you were doing was for a completely different purpose that the rest of us here were oriented towards.  Most of us are too old for that kind of hunt'n anyway!  ;)

i used the grey hound bus to get to were i was going to hunt and ride a bike or walk the few miles from the nears town to were i was going to hunt at. I used to do this for small game because i did not have much with me. Big game i would hunt with someone else in a car or if the had a atv.

Hey it doesn't matter how you get there..........long as your enjoying the journey right?

On my days off, I've spent the last several months riding the back roads on the southern part of the Cherokee National Forest in my 84 F-250.....I usually refer to it as "Big Ugly"........Not real pretty to look at, but 10 ply tires and high ground clearance makes for a smooth ride on rough roads......351 V-8, four speed with a granny.........4.11 limited slip........

No doubt it's a friend of OPEC..........but I don't have to worry about scratching it.......

I do a fair amount of walking......problem is, the season is short and there's a fair amount of land out there......

The game seems wilder too, as they don't see or smell near as many people as the farm land critters......

The Cherokee is one of gods finest pieces or work.......and I love being up there........

Jamal........just get out there and enjoy yourself.......life's to short not too........
