Shooting 100 yards[]

I need a scope on my rifle to shoot that far!

OK, so my bow isn' t made of wood and I didn' t build it myself. My arrows are not made of cedar and I didn' t cut them off the tree. I didn' t hand forge my own broadhead. Does that mean I am not a bow hunter?

I fletch my own arrows. I spin test every one. I check and recheck my broadheads for sharpness. I tune my bow. I test each arrow for proper flight. I am confident with my equipment to insure I can make a quick and humane kill. This makes me a bowhunter.

I guess everyone has their line. For me, I just don' t see that big a difference. I still have to get to 30 yard before I can shoot a deer with my bow.
