Greg....for a LOT of people...HOW they hunt defines them as hunters. The end (dead deer down) wouldn't justify the means, to many, if the animal wasn't taken on their terms.

For someone (not saying you do, at all) who views bowhunting as an opportunity to gain more woods time (and who switches off to other weapons as the seasons open)....and nothing else.....I don't see them buying into this train of thought.
