All with the bow?
Yes, several more with a shotgun.
I've been bowhunting them for the same amount of time.
Me, too. I've killed two more mature bucks than I have toms.....and 5-0 on antlered bucks.
I was just answering the 3rd question.
Killing a mature deer, with a bow, is more difficult... I'm not sure how that's an argument.
Harder for you, maybe.
Let's equate a 140" deer to a 10" bearded tom...
Boy there's an arbitrary number....lol. How is a 140" mature buck more "mature" than a 100" mature buck?
I didn't ever say that a 140 was more than mature than a 100 class deer, did I?. I equated a 4.5 year old deer to a 4-5 year old bird (in the three states that I hunt anyway).
