The thread was rifle hunting vs bowhunting as more challenging. As we both know only shotguns, muzzleloaders, and handguns can be used here in Illinois during firearm season. Throw a 10 day rifle season in..........I could kill a deer 8 or 9 times within that 10 day rifle season where I hunt. Granted mostly does, but it wouldn't be that hard. Same ground, 10 day bow season....couldn't do the same.
