I hunt with a rifle. I am 71 yrs. old, shoulder surgery 2 yrs. ago, can't pull a bow. Just what would you have me hunt with, a hunting knife??
You like to bowhunt? Or do you hunt with a spear? Sometimes it's not what you like, it's what you can do. If you're in your 20's, good physical condition, don't knock the rest of us. You might be in my position sometime down the road.
