if I gave up on a location or on ambush style hunting I would have missed out on a ton of success and opportunities lol
It takes time and failure to build the knowledge to get good at picking ambush locations. Scouting is huge along with learning the time of day the deer are using those trails. Don’t get caught up on the first/last light you hear from many hunters either if hunting over trails in the bush. Right now a lot of my trail cams are seeing heavy late morning to mid day action for example. So if you sat for a late afternoon for 5hrs in half my location you would see nothing. You could also be sitting on a location that sees no daylight movement. Sitting in random locations is a crap shoot
without knowing the movement of the deer you are best to sit all day
Hunting involves patience grasshopper lol
