I plan on sticking with the bow a little longer. Maybe the rest of the year.

I like to do a little of both. some mornings I sit my bow stand and others I sit the rifle stand. about a mile btwn the two. there's something about being in the woods with a bow I just can't get away from!

If your pulling your rifles out this weekend, i think your man-card should be pulled!
Once you start painting the woods with a bow, you just dont stop!
LOL, shoot what you want. Im just messing with you.

I will be hunting BOW ONLY! Unless it rains.

I planned on sticking to the bow thru Thanksgiving, but since the hunting has been so crappy at our lease, I'll be taking out the trusty ol' .300 WSM

Bow only.

Went to the rifle this am but will still mainly bowhunt. Sometimes it is nice not to camo up, scent down, safety harness and all that stuff. I know the seat in the box is alot nicer than the tree I have been in the last month.

Took rifle out Saturday morn because of a huge buck that has been cruising between me and two other guys. The other guy shot him, so I took a spike at 200 yards to work on the culling, and took bow out Saturday afternoon. Prob will stick with bow rest of the year
