You must be stalking in flat land, because you would bust A** in steep country in the Russells. In the Mountains of East Tennessee I have to have a strong lugged boot with firm ankle support in order to stalk and even then it's more of a "controlled" fall if you know what I mean.
...and this goes to show what many of these posts to the OPs question are trying to tell him. That like firearms or hunting techniques themselves, no one boot/shoe is the best for every situation and part of the country. Sheesh, there are times in the Tamarack swamps of Wisconsin when my stalking boots are a pair of chest waders. Part of being a knowledgeable hunter is knowing what kind of equipment works best for different situations. Asking for suggestions is a good thing, but till one goes out and walks a day or two in their hunting scenario, will they know if those things on their feet was a wise choice.
