SB,
Do we really have to go down this road again? Go read my post, I didn't say anything controversial. I do hunt with a bow, therefore I am a bow hunter, by definition anyway. Can't I answer the question? Or should I just let you answer how I feel for me?

And I do have one correction, not to you, but whomever you quoted. Just because you're hunting with a gun, doesn't mean when you see the deer it's over. Over the course of one day of stalking one buck, I saw him about 15 times, and he probably saw me a 100 times, I didn't get him! I also saw about 20 other deer that I was not after, and I never fired a shot. It was a hard hunt, nothing easy about it. I'd love to tell you some of the really cool parts where he flanked me on a number of occasions, but since I was carrying a shotgun, you don't want to know!
Go sit in your tree!
See ya,
KP
