Actually, the other .45% is done with a blow gun

But thanks for correcting my math. I worked about 25 hours this weekend in 96 degree temps and a heat index of 108-110in a burned out house with no electricity and I am still suffering a little from lack of sleep and extreme dehydration.

RE: % you rifle hunt-%you bow hunt

Wow, I'm a little shocked that some of you don't gun hunt. I hunt with whatever weapon is in season. Here in Oklahoma bow season runs from October 1st -Jan 15th. I have plenty of opportunity to get one with a bow, so I hunt muzzleloader and gun season.

Plus, in many cases the deer have been out of bow range, but hunting with my gun it was not a problem.

How many of you guys miss opportunities because you only bowhunt??? I guess some will say that is the reason they bowhunt, but my reason is to nail a deer.Actually only one of my buddies bowhunts, the rest of them only gun hunt. Oh well.. to each his own.

RE: % you rifle hunt-%you bow hunt

I'm probably about 85% bow 15% gun. I don't gun hunt all that much anymore. Usually just 2 or 3 times during gun season and maybe a couple of times late season. That's usually about it.
