read this in a magazine article!

It said that going to the woods and useing instinctive shooting is one of the most deadly weapons one can take to the woods? Wouldn't taking a gun be more deadlY. Just wondering other peoples thoughts??

[seabass]

with good shot placement they both are just as deadly

[Bjorn]

Lots of weapons can be used instinctively, including a gun or grenade for that matter. What kind of weapon was the article referring to.

Well, I don't know about just as deadly, I guess the difference would be in the accuracy and distance, speed at which one can aim a firearm vs. a bow. The archer definitely has the edge as far as stealth when shooting, (no big boom).

Yekrut, you did say one of the most deadly weapons.

If (and this is a big if) you can shoot well that way. Not everyone can, nor should they feel compelled to.

It was a trad archery article, yeah it said most deadley weapons one could take to the woods with them?

[Grey Taylor]

Sounds to me as if the author was out of hunting stories and the editor was hammering him for an article... any article... just make the deadline!
