RE: If you had to make a choice.
I tip my hat to those who said they would keep their bows.
I hunt both but I am also a meat hunter and my odds for success increase with my rifle.
That's especially true hunting with lower deer numbers that we have as compared to other states/provinces.
Those who say they shoot as many deer with a bow as compared to other hunters usinga rifle, may find it difficult to keep that success rate in NH.
