I have spent over 40 years hunting exclusively with a bow and I have passed on world class bucks because they were not in the ethical killing range. We’ve have developed over the years a love and admiration for the ART. Now we have a X bow hunter that can set up in a rifle blind and plink off dear in a feeder without giving any appreciation to the ART of archery, in my opinion he’s a gun hunter that gets to hunt early.
I don’t have a problem with them hunting during gun season, but leave bow season to Archers. It’s hard enough to harvest an animal with a compound, much less a traditional bow. I think that traditional hunters should get a two weeks head start on compound hunters.
Thanks just my opinion and my opinion only take with a grain of salt.
And Mark thanks for calling me friend, that means a lot to me brother considering what you know about archery!
i did say i was unhappy about it my point is there is nothing we can do at this current moment
