| | I know that we have probably discussed this in a post on the old site... but I am just curious.... I know there are several of us women hunters on here and I know that some have been at it for a while and some were just starting out..... What is everyone shooting ? Gun or bow or both ? And primarly deer or turkey ? I myself bowhunt not gun.... nothing against it though..... I deer hunt and turkey hunt..... I am shooting a PSE Spyder.... | |

| PSE Spyder bow with the works & Easton Carbon arrows. Of course I saved and bought this used. Been so busy helping to care for my Aunt with cancer, I try to squeeze in the practice time. Do not own a gun, Yet. Also not opposed to guns, just have not graduated to that level. No turkeys, but hoping for a deer this season.

| I use a Micro Adrenaline bow. It is probably supposed to be a youth bow, but it works great for me. I shot my first deer last year with it (3 does and a small 8 pt). It is lightweight and small enough I don't feel awkward. I also use shotgun, I apply for one either sex permit every year. I use a Remington 20 guage pump. I have shot 4 deer in 4 years with it. My first year was a 12 pt. and a doe every year after that.
I only hunt deer, (not that I wouldn't like to turkey hunt, I just don't know that much about it) and I am sooooo ready for the season to start!! I would love to shoot a nice buck with my bow this year!
Good luck to you this year!! | | | |

| | hey i shoot a remington model 700 in 30-06 cal. i would like to bow hunt but i dont have much upper body strength for being only 15 years old.. i can only pull up to like 44 pounds. my dad was thinking about getting me the martin jaguar in 35-50 pounds. I'm more into hunting with rifles. I hunt deer, doves, and squirrel. When im bored at home i just hunt lizards in my backyard with my pellet gun =P i took my first deer with my .410 shotgun and i took my first deer with rifle last december. i shot the doe in a greenfield 224 yards away and later that afternoon i shot a huge spike about 80 yards away and dropped him right there. he was my first buck. hopefully this year i get a big one! | | | |
