S&R,

I understand what your saying, and I hope your right about that percentage because that will mean that there won't be as many bow hunters in the bow only areas. I know that it comes with the territory with state land. Most of the guys that I hunt with don't gun hunt, they only bow hunt. As for extending the gun season, I wouldn't be opposed to that, if they would open up Sunday on Private land for bow hunters, I believe that would reduce the numbers as well, not to mention if they were to allow us to hunt an extra half an hour after sunset, after-all we can legally shoot a half an hour before sunrise, and it's just as dark then as it is a half an hour after the sun sets, and as I'm sure you know that half an hour after sunset seems like prime time for deer activity. At any rate good luck with the rest of your season, and I am not giving up by any means, there is still a lot of hunting left in me.
