>>632253>couldn't you just wear shoes and walk slowergoing barefoot helps you to walk slower though.
>and i don't need bare feet to know if leaves are wet or dry anondepends, in my area there are some leaves that my look wet but crackle a lot when stepped on. When barefoot i like to know if they're wet on top and dry underneath by putting my foot there.
>the stick cracking thing is valid, but it also works with moccasins which i suggested earlier, or soft soled hunting boots like the maine hunting shoe, which I also have a pair of.>and both of those then let you chase the deer after you shoot it without cutting your feet open or keep your toes from freezing offI wear medieval reenactment turnshoes if I'm hunting in the winter. They keep my feet warm and I can feel the ground. If it's winter I'm obviously not going to go barefoot; that would be stupid. And when you shoot deer you generally don't chase after them, I wait for 20 minutes for them to bleed out then track them.
