I hunt with my bow 99% of the time. I will take out my shotgun for small game or birds once in blue moon. In fact it's been 3 years since I last took my shotgun out of the case for anything except to be cleaned. I just don't get excited about hunting with a gun. It's been over 15 years since I took a gun out during deer season. I'm no expert marksman but I can easily drop a deer @ 100 yards. I just don't see the challenge in that.
