Although all deer seasons are good deer seasons....if you hunt bow, ML, and rifle for deer which is your favorite? Up here in Manitoba, though I enjoy bow....the mosquitos are still in force and though I enjoy rifle...it may be -20 to -30. So I would have to say the ML would have to be my favorite. The bugs are mostly gone, the fall colors are still in the trees, and you aren't worried about bending your limbs after sitting still at -20 (just getting old) for a few hours. How about you????
