I've been hunting/going out for 8 years, going through thick and thin bush, forest, overgrowth, and I've seen ticks only twice, on the same day, and on the same route. Didn't treat my clothes with anything.
If you're a beginner, stay on trail. Trails are safe and you'll see everything that you need to see. Leave trudging through shittundra for fanatics and bushcrafters. You won't reach their autism level for a long time.
At the end of the day, take a shower, and inspect your body if you've been going through high grass.
