Well, it depends on what tribe. Myself, I'm Chickasaw. But I can tell you that a lot of that knowledge has been lost. Most of the hunting lore revolves around the spiritual belief systems regarding hunting, as well as taboos. The actual methods vary. The Plains peoples often had a "buffalo jump" where a herd of buffalo could be stampeded off a cliff. Also, it was a different world before 1492. There were less people and more animals and no firearms. Game was not as skittish then, more than likely. Many tribes also did not rely solely on hunting since they were agrarian. One deer goes a long way dumped into succotash.
Now, around here, the Navajo have quite a few customs regarding hunting. Don't do this, make sure you do that, avoid this, don't say thus-and-so. One thing that was done was staking out a waterhole. This is high desert and sooner or later, animals come to water.
