RE: What do you think is more challenging?
I think both would be relatively easy to kill either a buck or doe over the course of a season with no size requirements. It aint rocket science, and small bucks are a dime a dozen around here. I couldn't count the number of shot opportunites i had over the course of last season at small bucks and does.
Each has there own set of challenges.
If i had money riding on killing a deer in one season, lets just say I'd rather have 4.5 months to pull it off with bow in hand, than <2 weeks with a gun.
Dontcha think the poll will be JUST a bit biased asking it in the BOWhunting forum as well?
