i dont think i can vote, its a toss up between bare hands and throwing knives....jk. but betwen bow and rifle its a toss up, i love them both even though ive never shot anything with a bow, its the bigger challenge that i keep goin back into the woods.

I would have to say bow because i'll never forget when i was 11 and i shot at my first deer with a bow and missed its somthing i'll never forget dont get me wrong i like to gun hunt too, all the deer i've harvested have been with a gun but it gets old after awhile.. for me bowhunting never gets old

Definately bow, because it's such a challenge. I have to say though, I guess I'm weird because I've never hunted with a rifle before. lol

It's all good and each weapon has their own appeal.Bowhunting for it's peacefulness and challenge.Rifle hunting for it's covering country and sneak hunting through thick woods.Fortunately I do plenty of both and don't think I would like to choose between the two!!
