Hell my entire premise is "with the bow"

LT.....though I may not choose to.....I DO live in a target rich environment. If I wanted to kill "just" an antlered deer......like I said....I wouldn't bet against me. That's not being cocky....that's recognizing the fact that I have a LOT of deer where I hunt. Nothing more.
The more deer the more luck a person can have to kill a deer.


20 years

21 Deer
12 Bucks
9 does
Do not want but maybe 2 a year.

Sorry, my mind was on turkeys ( no bow kills).

21 or 22/41 buck kills were bow kills.

All with the bow? Yes, several more with a shotgun.

I've been bowhunting them for the same amount of time.
Me, too. I've killed two more mature bucks than I have toms.....and 5-0 on antlered bucks. I was just answering the 3rd question.

Killing a mature deer, with a bow, is more difficult... I'm not sure how that's an argument.
Harder for you, maybe.

Let's equate a 140" deer to a 10" bearded tom...
Boy there's an arbitrary number....lol. How is a 140" mature buck more "mature" than a 100" mature buck? I didn't ever say that a 140 was more than mature than a 100 class deer, did I?. I equated a 4.5 year old deer to a 4-5 year old bird (in the three states that I hunt anyway).
