Serious question....
But doesn't the weapon of choice dictate HOW you hunt? Would you hunt the same way with a scoped riflev. a longbow?
I'm not uderstanding that line above. I don't think it's wrong.....just think it's too much of a broad stroke. Again....for you guys who use mulitple weapons....I think that line fits YOU well. It doesn't fit everyone, though. How I hunt defines me as a hunter. The weapon I choose to hunt with dfines how I hunt. I'm a bowhunter. Nothing elitist about that. Purist? Guilty.
I think you will get varying answers on this as well. For the most part, I bow hunt and rifle hunt with the same approach.I don't hunt over ag fields where I can take a 100-200 yard shot. I'm in the timber in the same areas I sat during bow season.I've shot one deer over 10 years with a gun that was out of my bow range.
