this is my first year bow hunting and i already love it more then any gun season... being able to sit there for hours and not freeze my arse off is one of the perks... but being able to be out with my bow and watching what the deer do during prerut is really fun.. thismorning i saw a button buck running about thinking he was the king of the jungle.. it was funny...

bow hunting i think is more difficult not only b/c its harder to acuratly take deer with a bow (way more practice needed then fireamrs) but your hutning during a time when the deer;s senses are hightened as the same as they are during the rest of the year... atleast here in the north east,,, gun season starts peek rut,, so the deer are love blind and its a bit easier to be out during this time... this is all opinion and speculation but this is how i see it!
