I just want to see how many people say bowhunting is better or gunhunting is better.
I say bowhunting because it is more of a challenge to me because if your arrow hits a tiny twig you have a 99% chance that you are going to miss the deer. If you shoot at a deer with a gun and the bullet hits a twig, the bullet will keep going to its target. I like to gun hunt with my shotgun but I only go out about 2 times during gun season. I would rather bow hunt than gun hunt any day of my life.

could never pick wether bowhunting is better than rifle hunting or vise versa. i love to hunt both ways each one you get the chance to be out in the woods by yourself in the peace and quiet. bowhunting and rifle hunting have there own challenges. so i cant pick which one is better

I like bow hunting for the solitude and challenges and the fact that its just me and the woods and my prey. But I also love to muzzleloader and rifle hunt because it gives me the opportunity to hunt with my father.

I LIVE to DEER hunt but if I had to pick one method it would EASILY be bowhunting! I've enjoyed carrying a Muzzleloader though for the last couple seasons and look forward to tagging a monster with it someday.

I like both gun and bowhunting ,although I bowhunt more now than gun hunt .I definetly agree that it's more the challenge thing that has me bowhunting.

Ain't neither one of 'em "better." I'm so addicted to bowhunting I don't even own a rifle any more, but I've done my share of hunting with rifles, shotguns, handguns, muzzleloaders... It's all good.
