longbowman I swing both ways, but not like you, I swing three ways, I hunt with a compound, black powder and gun. I will be honest and say that I prefer to kill a deer with my bow, but I still enjoy gun hunting also. I feel that the choice of weapon to hunt with is up to the hunter and what pleases them, or puts meat in the freezer if that is one of the reasons they hunt. If it makes you happy go for it.
