[QUOTE="db-2, post: 227677, member: 4743"] On the survey I have gotten on bow other than days hunted as I sure do not mark it down I do answer the harvest part correctly. At the same time I do think about not saying I shot a deer if I had. Yes, I agree it is not to my benefit to tell I have harvested a deer so will see if a survey comes one day after I have shot a deer with the bow. Have found quite a number of bucks but not a shootable one yet this year again. Only deer for the future if they make it. Maybe I need to focus on mule deer with the bow so I can get some mule deer rifle hunters on my case. And yes I am tight lip about my hunts as talking will only bring heartaches to me and my bow. However, not sure how many rifle hunters answer the bow survey correctly after they have shot one with their rifle and put a bow tag on it. I believe it happens more often than one thinks as I have seen it more that once. ( I seen a father showing off a buck his son shot with a rifle, when a person asked his son's age it became a archery kill, then enter into the deer show with the father as one of the judges and he took second for a bow) Most bow tags are sold the end of October or November. As I stated, as mainly a bow hunter, I am fine with the way it is and that only makes sense to feel that way for a bow hunter. We have very little rules on us compare to rifle, long season and the whole state and that is one reason I gave my rifle up besides it brings a lot more enjoyment than a rifle. But I also stated, before this is done us bow hunters will be in a lottery and I have stands in two different units so there goes one unit to hunt in and ect. And as I stated earlier I will need to adapt as before when rifle's tags were hard to get, as for some they cannot adapt but need to find a edge for themselves. db [/QUOTE]
