Bow, ML, rifle
 
Who here hunts all three seasons? I start bow next Monday and it would be nice to put at least one in the freezer next week. That way I can hunt upland game for 2 weeks, then goose for 3 weeks and then ML starts. It's a tough road but some one has to travel it.

Here in KS, if you do one, you can't do the other 2.
Hopefully they will be changing it next year.

Here in Missouri I do bow and rifle and plan on using my muzzle loader this season for the first time.

Bow only from Sept 1st-14th in our South Carolina game zone, after that it's any weapon until Jan 1st.

Hunt with bow off and on all season, but break out the ML and rifle during appropiate season and when location dictates. I have a few "bow only" areas I frequent all year.

I used to do all three. Now I bow hunt 'till Turkey season comes in (late Oct) then when ML season opens (2nd week Nov) it stays with me through rifle and then to the late ML season (Jan).

I do all 3. Bow hunt from 9/15 until firearms opener 11/3. I do firearms for the 9 day season I get, then go back to bow. I continue with bow until ML season 11/24 until 12/9 and can then go back to bow up through the end of deer season on 12/31.

yep all 3 for me starting this year, except no rifle only shotgun zones around here.

i think it will be fun to be able to use 3 different weapons.

I only hunt archery and rifle. I'd love to hunt muzzleloader, but can't afford the weapon and gear for it at this time.

All 3--but I have a place that I only bow hunt throughout the season as well.

Going to shoot for all three this year (pun intended!).

Got my first deer ever last year with a 30-30 (open sights), but want to bag one this year with my .270 Weatherby or my Grandpa's .32 Win Spl my father finally gave me.

Goingto try bow this year (Mathews Switchback XT)....I've been practicing every other day and I qualified for hunting on the military installations here in Virginia. Loaned my Mathews Feather Max to a friend so he can try this year as well.

I have two Muzzleloaders, and again I'm going to loan one to my friend (the same one using my other bow) so we can both hunt this year.

Luckily for us, we have an Urban Deer Season here in Fairfax, VA that will basically allow us to bow hunt does from 15 Sep through 29 Mar of next year. Muzzleloader and rifle seasons fall in Nov through early Jan. Hopefully I can bag more than one animal this year.
