Agree with the above. Trail runners are the way to go for most hunts. Not ideal for a packout. But neither are normal boots, and I'd rather optimize the 90% and deal with the 10% than vice-versa. But I've put un many thousands of miles in trail runners, so I think my accessory muscles are up for it.
I find myself getting annoyed with stack height - trail runners have gone to more cushion in recent years, which is tough on sidehills. I've done Salomon Speedcross, but the stack height got annoying so I picked up a pair of Salomon Forces Speed Assault 2. (<--- the Tacticool name was almost too much to handle...) I've only done one hunt in them, but I like them. Nearly all the positives of the speedcross, but with a shorter stack height.
Approach shoes might do it - haven't tried those.
