The King is sooo right on this topic that it elevates him to being "the man". I don't know if I call it cheating, but it certainly is an "apples to oranges" comparison.
I have killed ELEVEN turkeys with my bow. But all of them has been in the comfort of a DB blind where I can move around almost at free will.
I have hunted just as much if not more for turkeys with a bow and only natural set ups and got ZERO turkeys to show for my efforts.
I have made the argument to others that bow and blind is in MANY instances EASIER than trying to shoot one with a shotgun. I never get anyone to agree, because to do so would deflate their egos, but I have hunted a lot of turkeys with both gun and bow, and I know what I say is true.
So why do I continue to hunt turkeys with bow and blind? Mostly cause I don't care what anyone else thinks about it and I still enjoy it.
I don't have the time to hunt turkeys as much asI used to,so it expedites thehunt.In addition,the blind gives me a chance to take a lot of pictures of other wildlife as well.
Is it harder than killing any ole deer? Maybe in some places. But in my little part of the woods where both deer and turkey are plentiful and the turkeys roosts are fairly predictable, I'd say it is a wash.
Just my experience. Agree or deny yourself the truth that the King so freely speaks, the choice is yours.
