My biggest was a 161" under 10 yards still-hunting with a gun. A hunter shooting trad gear might have gotten him with an instinctive snap shot when he turned. If you haven't hunted big woods or spent time still-hunting big tracts of land -- it's a fun game. But unless you're stand hunting or in a blind, a compound bow might not be the ideal weapon in those areas.

Bow for me. Gun hunting for me is mostly luck. Deer are not using their normal patterns so I don't have a lot of luck with it. Plus I don't get the thrill of deer hunting with a gun. It is more of a tradition than the obsession that archery hunting is for me.
