Apologize in advance to my ignorance. Just trying to understand the hunt a bit better since I haven't tried it. I just picture people setting up and shooting the newly released animals. Doesn't sound as exciting as using dogs or trying to flush them out.

They run like hell. Hunting them on foot without a dog can be nothing more than going for a walk as many guys get skunked.
They head for cover fairly quickly and when they get in there it can get gnarly fast. Most release sites are not bald prairie, though I have heard one in southern Alberta is.
