RE: "Any bow kill is a trophy..."
If you can't figure out on your own why harvesting a deer with a bow is a bigger accomplishment than with a rifle or muzzleloader, then there is no sense in explaining it to you. It's kind of like comparing taking a deer with a recurve or a compund. If you can't figure out which one is more difficult then there is no sense in explaining it to you.
Let's see................A deer with a bow from 20 yards, or a deer from a rifle from 200 yards. You be the judge.
