I did..not on purpose..just didnt have anywhere to carry a rifle…it made me a lot better woodsman..now i carry a gun whenever its practical..but id still rather kibosh stuff with a bow. If you learn enough about the woods..big boy might walk by one day at 75yds..but the next time i climb hell be in range..deer are creatures of habit..that alone will end them.

I did it for about 4 years. What's your take on it? It’s challenging. You don’t realize, or I didn’t, how hard it is to hide in a stand in January. I only did it those years, cause I had access to good land. My odds of seeing shooter bucks was higher. Now, not so much. There’s more skill/luck in killing a rutting buck in Alabama(maybe the South in general) than a rifle by a long shot(no pun intended). 😂 Scouting for late season bow hunting made me a better hunter, I feel like. It ain’t for everybody.
83% of all statistics are made up.

Yep, don’t bother me a bit if a buck is hung up at 75 yards and no shot. I just try to get closer the next time.
It is hard to kill or catch anything sitting on the couch!
