To be honest with you Jeff, bow hunting is just another reason for me to be able to hunt. The challenge (or lack there of) doesn't even factor in.
I try to use different types of weapons not for the challenge they bring but for the uniqueness and fresh approach they offer.
I like the nostalgia of a stick bow or the mystique of the revolver, the high tech of a compound or the long distance calculating of a rifle.
Anything to make my experience in the woods longer and exciting, I'm all over it!
