I' m the same way. I went gun hunting once this year, and it just wasn' t the same. I can' t say I really enjoyed it. The whole time I was hunting, I kept thinking, man this is going to be a no brainer if a deer walks out at 200 yds. My uncle hunts with a gun only and killed an 8 an 15 point in Missouri 2 weeks ago. Thats great and all but not much of a challenge to it. I think I will be sticking to my bow all season long as well. Good Luck!
