Well, one reason I don't like bowhunting is its early in the season and the deer are following their usual patterns. Staying out only in the dark. I don't know how to get around this. In the morning they are standing in the field when i get there and in the evening they are waiting till dark to come out. I know, I've read to get near their bed and so on. I hunt at the edge of a muggy swampy bottom. It would take days to find a deer bed not to mention its so thick I would get lost.
