RE: If you had to make a choice.
Although I luv to bow hunt witch I usualy do right thru muzzleloader season and a few times during rifle .
I shoot a lot more deer with my rifle or shot gun than bow ,
I just dont get enough deer close enough for a ethical shot with my bow .

RE: If you had to make a choice.
although bow season is alot longer i can hunt from october 1 to february 28, the decision was an easy one to make...
1. i have alot better luck with my gun
2. just started bow hunting last year, beenusing a .243 for 13 years
3. they have a much harder time slipping out of range
in these parts we have a small but still dangerous bear population... that bow isn't gonna do much when you have a pi$$ed off bear on your tracks! i've only seen 2 while hunting and i always carry a pistol when bow hunting, but i doubt that will help much either. just a piece of mind i guess

Never the gun, I only hunt with a bow because i can get in the woods sooner.
