How many Bow Hunt around here any in Oregon

 

I bow hunt in the great state of Kansas....

 

how is over there bow hunting

 

Have you bow hunted

 

Depends on the part of the state you're in. In the East you have a lot of timber(relatively speaking) so the deer aren't nearly as confined. In the West, cover is sparse with few trees. You have your choice of whitetails and mulies in the west though. Deer numbers are high across the state with a one buck a year limit regardless of weapon. Bow hunters have an advantage because of the timing of the season.... we get to hunt the pre- rut and rut.

 

we get the late rut during late bow season. during early we don't get the rut at all

 

The hard part about Kanas is getting a tag, I love to hunt muies. I'll keep throwing sticks at the whitetails here in Missouri.

not hard when you're a resident... over the counter.

 

I thought kansas eliminated the over the counter tags for residents this upcoming year, going to a lottery system? Not sure, I live here in missouri.

 

Ohio here home of the Beatty Buck pending world record

 

Ohio, believe its $400 for a non-resident tag?

 

I'm with thwack, thwack em pack em and stack em... NJ's oficial bow hunting nut here, I hunt like a hungry indian......

 

basically... they've gone to a unit system for bowhunting similar to the rifle units, only larger. They gave no reason for the change to the application system. You can still buy over-the-counter tags for certain tags... landowner/tenant, anterless only... The 'lottery' system isn't really a lottery system. I've never heard of someone being denied a tag, there just aren't that many hunters, especially bowhunters to warrant it.

Non-residents are on a true lottery system where you aquire points and what-not.
