I will be hunting opening day in PA of gun season, but I'd love to take the bow. It would be pointless with all of the orange on the opener in PA. I am really looking forward to getting back to MI and hunting the late season. Hunting archery in the late season is the BEST. Snow, no leaves, deer are very sharp, not too many bucks left but I will be targeting an older doe. For those who have not tried it, take my advice and get out there one time when the snow is on the ground.
