Why not both? I started bowhuntng last year & love it. I still gun hunt tho in season. I bow hunt from Sept 15 till Nov 17th thru the 20th & then bowhunt till the end of Jan. The only reason I dont gun hunt more is lack of local places that allow firearms. I wont hunt state land here & people are way more receptive to bowhunting here.
I love huntng period, tho I will say I like hunting with my bow better as its much more personally rewarding to take a deer from 20 feet than 200 for me.
