I cant say every time I get in the woods. The savage makes two to three appearances per year. Id say a solid 90 % of my sits are with my bow in hand.

After picking up a bow for the first time three years ago, I have only taken a rifle twice since then. Killed my best buck during the rut 3 yrs ago with my bow don’t see myself going back anytime soon.

One thing that year-round bow hunters have in common (usually) is an amazing deer population. I don't know many guys that hunt crappy land that are bow-only. It's usually the type folks that see 22 deer on a sit and complain about only seeing small bucks  I've got a place now where I can see a good many deer, but I'm not to the point where I can see a shooter at 80 yards and be happy about not shooting him during rifle season.

This ^^^ u might kill a good buck every few years hunting my place with a bow i would love to bowhunt year around but I like killing deer too so I take rifle

I’ll Bow Hunt some public land spots because that’s my only choice. But if I’m on private land I’m going to have the smoke pole no question about it

At this season in my life I don't hunt near as much as I used to be able to. I'll go maybe half a dozen times/season, tops. Usually bow opener, 1-2 times with the kids early in the season, and then another handful when the rut is wide open.
I tote my rifle for all of it except for the bow opener.

I bowhunt the entire season.........it's getting a bit frustrating being a member of a gun hunting club, with all the pressure they put on the deer. I've got to find a better situation. Any suggestions???? I'm in Mobile, AL. HELP!!!

Does a crossbow count? I haven’t killed a deer with a gun in 3 years but 13 have died in that time.

I still use my rifle but I also bow hunt during rifle season a fair amount. The weather and whether or not my son is with me determines it the majority of the time. I wanted to bow hunt last weekend and this weekend but no we have to have heavy rain. While I’m at work next week I’m sure the weather will be great
