RE: How many amongst us use only archery equipment?
I only bowhunted for a lot of years, but I'm in the process of getting set up for muzzleloading again. And I have to admit the bowhunting forum was the inspiration behind my decision. I've been feeling the need to make noise and smoke againfor quite awhile anyway, but one of the discussionshere, where more than a few were bad mouthinggun hunters just before Thanksgiving, got me fired up to do it.

I bow hunt threw all of archery season and gun hunt the gun seasons.
I get a much bigger high off killing with my bow but gun hunting is a tradtion for me.
That night before gun season is really magical, the comradery and thatfeeling before heading out with friends and family cannot be beat.
I started out gun hunting and will always continue doing it.

I bow hunt about 75%,rifle and m/l some each year, and even shoot one with a pistol once in a while. I just love to hunt...and honestly its a little nice to have a change of pace sometimes, though I usually take my bow. Took myrifle out today, first time in over a month.

I went to a rifle range for the 1st time recently. I was shooting my friends 30-30 Marlin. I thought I did quite well but for now I'm sticking with the bow.
