RE: Are we really hunting anymore?
 

K.P.
You have some realy fun times ahead for you!There is no feeling in the world like teaching your children how to read the animals,talk to them,stalk them,Etc. Then the hours and hours of prep and practice.Then the day one of your own brings down a big buck!!It all pays off.I taught my sons how to fish,and they took it to another level.I learn alot from them now.I see that happening soon with hunting.Man!...4 kids in the field!Seeing them on the hunt is going to be morefun for you than actually hunting.I leave my gun at home all the time.But then again i could hunt every day if i wanted to.
As far as some of these guys talking about bows being the hard way,I call B.S. on that.My Bowtech is no less accurate than a 30-30.And i know it.Im not trying to fool anyone.I can see a longbow being tougher,and wounding lots of deer............

I am 18 years old and this is my first season bowhunting. I thought i should get a tree stand but realized i cant stand to sit still for that long adn the land i hunt is mostly cedar trees anyway. I prefer spotting and stalking because i get to move and have learned alot more about the deer in the area then i would have if i had set up a stand near the trails i had my camera on.

thanks for bringing this point to our attention and i hope to learn alot from your experiences and knowledge
