The bow is where It's at. But I still like to use my ML, and might start up the sidelock gig as I've confidence in my inline ML to over 200 yards anyways. I mostly enjoy the long seasons, 1 month ML, 3.5 months archery (overlapping in december) and the challenge. It's nothing with a rifle. If I can see it, I can have it. That lost its appeal to bow and ML, though I still embrace longer range target shooting with centerfires.
