Who had the idea to let the bow hunters have first crack at em anyway? Ans what's the reasoning...Just sayin!!!! Let's open rifle season in October and let it go 2-3 weeks and then let the bow hunters have them until the lull. Close the season for some length and then when the rut starts roll the guns back out there.

and FWIW it isn't gonna happen anyway but talk about some bucks getting laid down!!!

I'm with you, bow hunters can start 3 weeks after gun season, and they can end on Dec. 31st.

Nah man, first couple weeks of bow season with nobody else in the woods is bliss!
After the first full week of gun season they change their patterns. I love bow season being early. I don’t bow hunt as hard as I use to, but I wouldn’t dare change that!

hunt with the bow all you want. No need for a separate season.

without the bowhunters slinging sticks for a month before gun season, the same would be true for the opening couple weeks for everyone.

I’m in for this. No sense in holding up the fun for three bowhunters, two of which use crossbows.

I wish they’d bring bow season in on the first Saturday of October.

It’s Oct 1 in Mississippi and the few years I’ve lived here it’s been 80 that day most years. But I usually hunt it anyway.

Our archery season opens in mid September and firearms season starts in mid October. Firearms closes at the beginning of January and archery season goes on till January 15 I believe. Also got 2 weeks of primitive season in there. It’s a very long season here too.

. January 15th, our area hasn't even started the rut.

That’s the difference. A lot of Louisiana has a more traditional fall rut.

They may have a traditional rut , but the big difference is several zones and dates, not one size fits all like Chuck and Co. saddled us with.



"Why do you ask"?

Too many people spend money they don't have , on things they don't need, to impress people they don't know.

Anybody can kill ‘em with a gun. Well, judging by all the “need a dog” posts, I guess that isn’t really true.

Why don’t we just have no closed season or bag limits on deer. Sure seems like what some people want!!
