Yeah the deer I kill with a bow require no hunting skill at all. Hell, I'm just climbing random trees and flinging sticks with my eyes closed. Miracle I have killed as many deer with it as I have considering I apparently don't know where their heart and lungs are. LOL! But I'd way rather climb a tree with my compound bow or recurve than a 30-30. If I'm going to handicap myself I'd rather use a bow. At least a broadhead leaves a blood trail.
