RE: how many people quite
I still gun hunt and allways will. I enjoy it too much to give it up. Infact I enjoy all types of hunting. They are all unique in their own ways.
I have done both and still to this day will tell you that hitting a 3in circle at 300yds with any rifle/scope combination is much tougher than hitting a 3in circle at 30yds with a bow.
200yds and in with any rifle or slug gun is a no brainer and this falls into my Illinois slug gun season. But smaller game out to 300yds and beyond is just as exhilerating as an up close and personal shot with my bow.
