Spot and Stalk Hunting

Spot and stalk hunting is a tried and true technique that requires patience, observation, and stealth. The objective is to first locate your quarry from a distance, then approach it undetected to get within shooting range. This method is especially useful when hunting big game in open terrain.

  1. Use binoculars and spotting scopes: High-quality optics are essential for locating game at a distance. Train yourself to scan the landscape methodically, looking for subtle movements or color patterns that reveal the presence of animals.
  2. Plan your approach: Once you have located your target, study the terrain, and plan your approach. Consider factors like wind direction, available cover, and potential obstacles that could alert the animal to your presence.

The CROSSHAIR Shooting Bench is an invaluable asset for spot and stalk hunting, providing a stable platform for long-range shots during the final moments of the stalk. Its military-grade construction and lightweight design allow for quick setup and easy transport, ensuring you can capitalize on opportunities when they arise.

Still Hunting

Still hunting is an art form that blends stealth, patience, and all of your senses. This technique involves moving slowly and methodically through the animal’s habitat, using your senses to detect the presence of game and then taking a well-aimed shot. Still hunting is particularly effective in dense forests or areas with limited visibility.

  1. Walk slowly: When still hunting, take slow, deliberate steps, stopping frequently to listen and observe your surroundings. This approach helps you blend in with the environment and reduces the chances of startling nearby game.
  2. Pause often: Regularly pause to scan the area, using your eyes, ears, and nose to detect the presence of animals. This also allows you to catch your breath and maintain a steady aim when the moment arrives to take your shot.

The CROSSHAIR Shooting Bench is the ideal companion for still hunting, providing a quick-setup shooting platform that offers stability and precision in a variety of terrains. Whether you’re nestled among trees or tucked behind a rocky outcrop, the CROSSHAIR Shooting Bench ensures that you have a reliable and steady base for those crucial shots.

Ambush Hunting

Ambush hunting is a time-honored technique that relies on patience and strategic planning. The objective is to set up in a location where the animals are likely to pass by, and then wait for your opportunity to take a shot. Ambush hunting is highly effective in areas where animals have predictable movement patterns or natural funnels.

  1. Choose a location with natural funnels: Look for areas where terrain or vegetation forces the animals to travel along specific paths, such as saddles, creek bottoms, or narrow strips of cover.
  2. Monitor animal movement patterns: Observe the area for signs of animal activity, such as tracks, droppings, or bedding sites, to determine the most likely routes they will take.

The CROSSHAIR Shooting Bench and Hunting Blind are indispensable tools for ambush hunting, providing comfort and concealment during long hours of waiting. The Hunting Blind offers a lightweight tent system with easy setup, versatile door and window options for optimal concealment, and pre-attached window mesh screens to keep you hidden from view.
