Over the past few years I would say 60%bow/40%rifle.

RE: % you rifle hunt-%you bow hunt
 

100% bow...switched over to bow only in 2005 and haven't looked back.

RE: % you rifle hunt-%you bow hunt
 

We only have two different season 1: Archery Only 2: General Season (Any legal weapon). The last 11 years I have been 100% archery even through the general season, however the last two years my 7 year old daughter started wanting to hunt with me some, when she goes I hunt with a rifle and last year she took a spike with a rifle. During the last two years 95% Archery, 5% Gun....

Probably 50/50. I had a pretty bad hunting accident while bowhunting in 2000....keeping a bow out of my hands for a few years. I forsee in the next 2 years that it will be 90% bowhunting....not 100% because I love to shoot the ML.

100% Bowhunting:D

RE: % you rifle hunt-%you bow hunt
 

Well considering our bow season is MUCH longer than our gun season, and even longer in special regs areas, Broken down in hours, it’s probably 95%-5%. There were years I tagged out before rifle season, and sat it out completely, but with the generous tag allotments anymore, I try to keep at least one or 2 tags open to head out with my handgun or shotgun. What can I say, I like shooting deer.

I was 50/50 from the time I got my first hunting license in 1964 until 1983 when my guns got stolen. 100% bow since then. But this year I have to switch to crossbow and I built a new muzzleloader, so I think I'll probably be back to 50/50.

RE: % you rifle hunt-%you bow hunt
 

I hunt with what ever is in season, bow season here last 3-4 months, regualr gun season is 9 days, then they have the antlerless hunts, and eradication hunts, its cwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazy

RE: % you rifle hunt-%you bow hunt
 

For Deer: 95% Bow/5% Muzzle loader. I have 2 landowner tags each year and use one during bow and then go out on last day with muzzleloader to see if I can put more meat in the freezer.
Turkey: So far (2nd year hunting Toms, 100 shotgun)
Pheasant: 100% shotgun
Coyote: 100% Rifle
