I had a friend that said I should get a bow so we could bow hunt together, so I did. That was 6 years ago and my friend has yet to pick up his bow, but I have been having the time of my life. I taught myself to shoot and have learned to shoot better from some other bow hunters that I have met. I really have no desire to pick up my rifle anymore because it is just to easy. Bow hunting is by far is my sport of choice!!! What an addiction!!
