Mandate ARs for bow season only. For the following reasons:

1.) Those who are avid bowhunters tend to be advocates of ARs, whereas, those who typically only get out a few days of the year during gun season, don't wish to see it. Since bowhunters want it, give it to them.

2.) Bowhunters already have an unfair advantage over the gun hunters with lengthy seasons during prime rut time when the deer are least disturbed.

3.) The bucks are too spooked during gun season and go noctunal so you will not have to worry about gun hunters killing all the young bucks that you pass up during archery.

4.) I don't bow hunt.
