How many of you gun hunt or black powder hunt also? I know many of you do not but I havn' t been able to get a good idea of how many of you do. I love the solitude of bow hunting. There are just so many people in the woods when it' s gun season. Sometimes it' s hard for me to find a spot where I don' t have people on my hunt all day long. But when I trek far enough from everyone else it' s worth it. Yesterday I purposely set up at the edge of an area I knew would be crawling with people. I wanted to take a deer and calculated that my best bet would be to set up my tree stand over a draw at the edge of a deer drive. I was right. I left my car at 615. was set up in my tree just before 7 am. Around 8-830 I shot a nice button buck that was being pushed thru the draw(yesterday was a Doe day). By 9 am I had him gutted and was dragging him out. It was a productive hunt...and enjoyable hunt....but different. There was an excitement to it, but it was very different than bowhunting when my excitement is overwhelmed by the need to be absolutely still and quiet. You all already know the diferences, I' m just wondering how many of you enjoy gun season as well.

here' s the button I took
