Bow, Rifle or Shotgun? What do you prefer for hunting whitetails?

[bonnier-admin_2]

There are places for bow only and shotgun only and you will have only one day to hunt it. MAKE IT COUNT!

I prefer bow hunting. Clay, we get ten deer a year spread over bow, muzzle loader, and moder gun, rifle or shotgun. This season I will only carry my bow from mid September through January 1.

For me it would have to be with a bow. Not because if feels more rewarding, since I feel blessed to harvest an animal with weapon. But for the sole reason that the woods are a lot more peaceful during bow season, and the states I hunt in, the leaves are always at peak foilage and the rut is normally in full swing before rifle season come in makes it that more enjoyable to be in the woods.

Shotgun, but i also enjoy bow hunting.

Shotgun and bow, only cause I live in a no rifle zone.

I have not shot at a deer with any, only been hunting with others,(just watching) but have shot all of the firearms alot. I don't really like shotgun, rifle is the easiest to shoot, but BOW, now that is Fun. BOW ALL THE WAY!

Bow - early bow season temperatures are much milder in Michigan than during rifle and muzzleloader seasons.

Shotgun though I am going to try and take one with a bow this fall in Wisconsin.

Bow I love to bow hunt,you have to get the animal up close. Also the woods are alot less crowded with other hunters, but I wouldn't give-up my shotgun either,not allowed to use a rifle in the state I live in.
