bow season for me my second choice muzzleloader
All of them equally. I could care less what weapon I take in the woods, the fun is just being out there.
ky hunter knows about our late muzzleloading. december, post or second rut and the weather is almost always good deer weather. this is my fave.
Rifle season because of the sheer range and accuracy of the weapons.
Bow season, because its longer and more challenging, then rifle season comes along and gives you a chance at the big one that came in just out of bow range, kind of a second chance. but rifle season is just as exciting...im tore between the two.
Bow season, less hunters out, the deer are calmer.
rifle
I gotta agree with BioGuy. Any excuse to get out hunting is welcome.
Bow for sure. Like Mihunter said, more challenging, plus deer are less spooky, weather is better. But I wouldn't give the gun opener up for anything in MI>
Bow. up here that is the best chance you have at a really nice buck. But Rifle season is really fun.
Bow ... the serenity, lack of roadside hunters
Gun: Range and other game options
Rifle then bow.
bow then rifle, bow is a lot more time to hunt and it requires a little more skill. I'm not dissing rifle but I really think your more one with the hunt with bow.
I hint with my bow during all three. It don't really matter to me.
"hunt" sorry.
