Default RE: Bowhunters - do you root against the gunners?

My Dad and two of my sons use guns for hunting and I hunted for many years with a gun -- I'm a Life NRA member who supports gun owners. However, I started using just a bow for hunting deer a few years ago. It's my choice and I don't wish to impose that on anyone else. What we have around my area is a few slob hunters who hunt exclusively with guns and shoot anything that moves in or around any area they happen to be in -- and that includes trespassing to do so. They shoot fawns, as many bucks as they see, they cripple deer that never should have been shot at, ,etc. THOSE guys are the ones who I want to eat tag soup. a good friend of mine farms much of the area around my place and it's his crops that feed a lot of these deer and he only guns hunts. Of course I wish him the best of luck as well as the ethical guys who obey the law. The slobs are what sours me on it.
