My season is gonna be cut short due to a long trip, but so far I saw more deer while bow hunting. I only switched to the gun because I am oh fer nothin also. It's not lookin good for me this year.

I hunted bow yesterday afternoon...nothing...weird I was happier with nothing with the bow than with the rifle!

I enjoy that. but, if hunting solo, i'd rather strike out with my bow than shoot one with my rifle. i killed many deer in the past with a rifle, so not knocking it. just get so much more enjoyment now out of the bow "experience."

turkey247 12 point Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 4,802 LASW	well, I bowhunted all year for the first time myself (except one lonely afternoon when I had an awful cold, and sat in a shooting house - and regretted it). Anyway, killed a couple does and had two impressive performances from Tekan's (first time shooting them, now I here they are changing them...again). I love January hunting, but my season is pretty much over. My wife has a scheduled delivery for next Wednesday for our second child - another boy, and I am gonna be a good husband and hang it up this year. Got to build some points for turkey season, when things get serious.
