If you don't like the answers you get when you post your questions. And because ofthat it turns into a 10 page war because you don't like what other people say. Then why bother posting any questions at all?
Jeff you have a ton of deer in your area. If you want to kill some with a longbow or recurve go for it. Who cares what anyone else thinks?
You have lots of deer so sounds like a good learning experiance to me. Until you get bored with it anyhow .
Fling away!!!
