Ben2, I've killed 5 with a bow now and none of them were easy. I spend hours
cutting shooting lanes, checking cameras, placing stands, practicing in the yard. I earned every one of them and it was all worth it. I have made it a personal goal to kill a big mature buck with my bow and I will one of these days. Forget deer season dates, let's talk about why I'm on my 67th hour at work this week... Ugh

Any Gomer Pyle deer hunter can kill a deer with a rifle. I've done it. It ain't hard. My dad just killed the biggest buck of his life and he never hunts 50 yards from his Ranger. To get a deer within 20 yards of you and be oblivious to you being there is hunting. I've known numerous guys who killed big bucks with a cigarette hanging out of there mouth. That's why I love bowhunting, because it is so hard and takes a lot of skill. I guess I'm an Elitest because bow hunters are elite when it comes to pure skill. I read a statistic somewhere that only 20 percent of bow hunters are successful each year in harvesting a deer. You know why? Because it's not easy. That's why I'd like to see a week or so more for strictly bowhunting. I know most of you will not agree with me or what I said but it's the truth. What you tryin' to say, pal?

1. All Politicians Are Liars
2. All Gun Laws Are an Infringement
3. Taxation Is Theft

I don't think it would matter. I counted a total of 17 rifle shots during the week that rifle season ended around our place. Either folks don't care about the new laws or they didn't read the new regs.
If it were up to me, there wouldn't even be a rifle season. Is it possible they were sighting in their guns or hog hunting?
I had much rather be tried by twelve than carried to my grave by six!!!!

Ugh Just wondering - how many deer have you killed and how many mature bucks have you killed, regardless of weapon? ive killed 9 total in 3 years of hunting and my best buck was a 3 year old 8 point with rifle. I duck hunted for 20 years but have mostly given that up because of my new desire to bowhunt.
