I do way to many various types of hunting where a gun is a must. I have GSP bird dogs that I used to hunt competetivly for 10+ years, but now just take them out with friends, for excersise, and because the dogslove it. I also do allot of duck,dove, goose, grouse, some squirrel and other stuff where a gun is needed. No way you could even think about taking a woody with a bow legally anyway. I occassionaly shoot ground hogs in pre season on my properties and some other properties I hunt, which I guess could be done with a bow, but I just enjoy making those 100 to 300 yards shots with friends, good fun. So, to answer thequestion, I always will, and always have used both. My passion is bow hunting big game, especially whitetails which is obvious as I spend more than 80 days a season hunting whitetails.
