Bowhunt or Gunhunt??
#33
voted bow but my main goal is deer meat! would like to gun hunt but ohio only has a one week season and thats when everything that can hold a gun comes out and it can get real bad. so i crossbow hunt because the season is four months and i am always alone but i also own a ML.

bow hunting is my passion, you need to be close pick the right spot not saying you dont have to to your homework with a gun but you get that much closer , if i had a choose between shotgun orr blackpowder it would be black powder , you only have one shot , so you tried to make sure it counts

I voted for the bowif it is in reference tothe sporting aspect of hunting. If itwas a necessityfor foodI would opt for the gun, and if a centerfire was available, it would have to be a long action, either .270 or .30-06. Of course, if it was in very big game territory, and not in the Midwest, I would opt for something in .35 or .375 as a minimum. But the fire is lit when I take to the field with a bow and my broadheads.

I enjoy it all but the weapon of choice is the bow.In my home area you have a much better chance at a big buck during the archery season than the rifle season.Bow hunting has made me a much better hunter than I ever would have been otherwise and bowhunting is something you are or should be involved with throughout the year(shooting).I can't imagine my life without it!
