"The more seasons the better."
I'm still trying to convince my wife to move to Texada Island for the extended bow season there....will probably happen faster than crossbow only season

Meat and eat first, track and rack second.

Don't ASS U ME.
I hunt all season long with bow, but I originally tried it because there was an early bow season, and I got hooked. All we really have left for pure bow season is the late whitetail here in EK but it is nice to get out before the masses, even though a few juniors are stirring up the game. As stated, it is about opening opportunity that would not be sustainable otherwise.
As for crossbows, I'm ok with the weapon being allowed in bow season, I just wish that more of them would show up at the 3-D shoots to get some good practise in. The only real advantage they have is that you don't have to move when the game is close to you. You still need to practise, albeit not quite as much as a compound or traditional.
I can unload and reload my 30-06 alot faster than I can shoot and recover my quiver full of arrows. But then again, when I'm shooting arrows I usually do it with my eyes closed because anything outside of the 50 yard kill zone isn't as easily identified. Same goes for the 30 ought too, but I can reach a mile or so with that....

When and where have you seen or heard of a bow hunter doing that?!? Is this the infamous "Chinese" that you so readily bash? Post up something that is at least semi-intelligent.Fisherdude
Yeah, right. What about the jackass bow hunter who flings a quiver full into the bushes because they thought they saw something?
Bow hunters' identify their game before they shoot. It's just something that comes naturally.
WOW, Hrpm refers to "Rifle hunters" and Fisher-Dude refers to "Jackass Bowhunters. F-D that must be one son-of-bitch of a Burr under your saddle .

I heard next year there's gonna be a Longbow only season for 3 months, but you have to hunt from Horseback, while moving, wearing a Bootsy Collins Disco suit, and you have to have 8 shots of Cuervo before you start. That should bring the success rate right down from almost bugger all to sweet bugger all. Point and shoot 3D? Now that's an interesting concept......... LMAO
