You are going to love the experience of bow hunting.  I started 3 years ago for Deel and will never go back.  Instead of seeing 10 people per hour, like on the modern.  I may see 10 people per week, if I'm lucky.  I got my first one with a bow this year and there is nothing like it.  keep us posted on how you do next year.
