Keep in mind openions are like butt holes everyone has one and they all stink lol.
for me, whitetail hunting is so formulaic it's long past the realm of challenge. sit in a treestand with whatever bow the pro-shop tells you to buy, with a range finder that tells you how to adjust your point of aim. while wearing clothing that masks your scent. while sitting in front of a foodplot or row-crop field which attracts deer with high protien feed in an area you know has big deer from your trail cam pictures. it's repeated by everybody out there, every year. i still bowhunt whitetails every year because the tags are cheap.
this year i killed a doe off of horseback with my recurve (after many failed attempts including one ending in breaking my thumb) GIVE ME ADRENALINE!
