Default RE: Why I Love Bowhunting!!!

Gutshot!

I believe your absolutely right on ,I rifle hunt as well and i wouldn't even consider bowhunting for many year's ,I made a bet with a friend who bowhunted only and we made a bet .the bet was who ever got the biggest deer that season would be the winner and the loser would have to try the other's hunting method's for 1 season .It was looking pretty good up till the last weekend of the season when my buddy showed up with a great looking buck .So as I promised I borrowed a bow from him and used it the next season,boy was I ever losing out bowhunting filled all the gap's and all the challenge's that i was missing during gun season.I found there to be more challenge's to bowhunting and definetly a lot more to learn,but I loved it .
Ever since that season 5 yr's ago I've boughten 3 bow's and a few thousnd's of dollar's worth of archery gear ,I've only used my rifle 2 or 3 time's since .I think back now that I wished i had been bowhunting as a child because I've missed so so much in all those season's as a rifle hunter . I bowhunt almost strictly now and i only use my rifle for 2 day's a season.
But bowhunting has lifted my spirit's and I rise to new challenge's every outing .It is the most awsome sport and I'm passing it on to my kid's as we speak.
