thanx guys...i think for the first bow season i will be pretty selective and see what i am seeing...take a doe or 2 or 3...and get good at bow hunting and see what happens...i do think i will hold myself to the AR standards until after rifle season..which leaves me with late bow season...by then i will have a ton of hours in the woods and chances are i will probally have a buck by then...i used to be happy as could be with a big fat doe...but that 6pt made my whole year...i will still be happy with a doe anyday..but man antlers do something magical...and hunting alone makes me happy...when i tag a deer it just makes it all so much better...im so excited to be starting bow hunting...that gives me so much more time than the normal 2 week rifle season...and i already know where 2 bucks that are AR legal now living behind my house i can walk to....i cant wait..its going to be a blast...when everyone else is sitting at home doing nothing i will be in the woods..i love being in the woods...just being able to rest and relax and get away from it all..that does enough for me...seeing and taking game makes it alot nicer...thanx guys...
