Terrain and vegetation dictate how one hunts. Maw Nature has a lot to say in that matter.

A lot of the south Texas "brasada"--the brush country--south of US 90 is a lot like a pool table covered with mesquite, catclaw and cactus. Sneaky-snaking in that stuff works well--for a snake. OTOH, walking hunting for mule deer in west Texas is productive. And, for whitetail in the Hill Country of central Texas. But all of that is different from the swampy river bottom along the Appalachicola in Florida.
