Small game hunting with a bow is simply put the very best time in God's country a man can have.  I'm so ate up with it that I built my entire setup around my small game arrows.  I footed my shafts to endure rocks/tree trunks better.  I limited point weights to 125gr specifically so that I can use Judo's and RFA Talons (my two favorite small game heads), then had to add 100gr inserts up front to bring the weight up for deer/hogs and get them to tune properly.  I also went with some awful fluorescent pink fletching so I can find my arrows easier after shooting at all those devilish squirrels.

Just do whats right for you... eventually you may decide to go all bow all year but it all comes down to what you want.  No shame in using a gun to feed the family.  I still carry a  gun a  day or two a year.  I still cannot kill a  deer with lol.
Relax,

You'll live longer!
