bowhunting vs gunhunting
I have seen alot of post on how much better bow hunting is then gun hunting.
I love bow hunting but i love gun hunting aswell .
It seems that us and yes i said us think we are high then rifle hunters or even just muzzleloader hunting.
To me it is just as possiable to get close to a deer with a gun as you can with a bow . Yes you must be with in a few yards with a bow, and a rifle hunt can go as far out as a few hundrad yards.
But lets look at it like this .
You go hunting saterday morning . A nice size doe comes in 25 yards out stands around eating infront of you. And you take her . great deer you should be proud .
Now the next day is rifle season aanother doe same size comes in 25 yards out and you take her . Another great deer you should be proud. Now if it is me i am as proud with the gun kill as i was the bow kill
i have hunted for four years but missed last year out of the four i have shotgun hunted rifle hunted and bow hunted. I have not yet taken my first deer. so some of you might say i need to shut up till i do .
But i have never felt anyless with nature or the deer gun hunting then bow hunting .
This is my first year bow hunting since i was 14. And it is my fav and best year .Not just because i am using a bow but becaus i am back home in indiana and on privit land for the first time.
I think there is alot of anti bow hunting coming from hunters, Because we think we are ahigh class hunter Just because we shot a arrow at25 yards does not make us any better then the gun hunter doing it at 25 yards or 250 yards .
As long as it is legel i am hopen to it . I hope to tak emy first deer this year and i am glad i willdo it with my reflex bow not because it isharder or closer but because, when i remeber being a 14 year old kid walking through the woods and fresh cut corn field that i start hunting on . I hadmy first bow a bear .And when i get that first bow kill it will all come down to that . Day afterxmas that was my first hunt ever. 14 huntingby my self with my bow and new camo i gotfor xmas. I have been mostly self taught except for the info fromyour guys and a few friend .
good luck to all hunters be them bow hunters or gun hunters stay safe and havefun and try and not kill bambi . lol
