When I'm at the airport in Alberta on my way to the Edmonton Bow Zone, I getrifle huntersasking me, " you're bowhunting"? Like I'm nuts or something.Everyone at the hotel is agun hunter as well. In 2 years up thereI've yet to see another bowhunter, other than my small group.
It's nowhere nearly as intense killing a deer at 100 or more yrds with a rifle, than it is at 20-30yrds with a bow, as far as I'm concerned. You see much more from the animal up close and personal.
