Default RE: Bow Hunting Vs. Gun hunting

ORIGINAL: Out for the kill

ORIGINAL: Hoytteen

gun hunting seems like i am somehow cheating the deer and taking ther life a 150 yds...i like it wher u can call em in into less than 20yds
The only differnce I see there is 130 yards. so its cheating them when you kill them at 150 yards, but not at 20???? HMMMMM....


I prefer Rifle
Besides the yardage, it also seems like cheating because it's a hell of a lot easier to hit a deer with a rifle than a bow. In order to be accurate with a bow you have to work hard a while before season starts in order to hit a deer but with a rifle you just go out right before season, sight it in and you're set.

Also, I just wanted to add in that a deer's 20 yards away, it is A LOT more likely to hear and see you moving around than it is at 150 yards. So at 20 yards it just seems more fair.
