Default RE: Is it hunting??..........or Shooting??

ORIGINAL: wyote

Another way of looking at this is........If a bow's max range is 35 yards and a rifles max range is 350 yards. Is the bow hunter just shooting or hunting at 35 yards?
I don't take a bow shot over 20 personally but that is just me.........and I don't think many people would argue that a deer 60 feet away is more likely to bust you then one 350 yards away...........At 60 feet you have to worry about blinking or you might get busted.


Also don't give me this stuff about the deer (or whatever) doesn't even know your around at 300 yards. Well a deer better not know your around at 30 yards when your using a bow or you won't get him either.
What does that mean?? I am confused............are you saying that being 300 yards away from a deer is the same thing as being 30 yards away just because of the weapon in your hand??
