    Hey guys and gals, I am Mike from north central WV. Morgantown area GO MOUNTAINEERS!!!! I have hunted most of my life with guns. More rabbit and turkey than deer. Started bow hunting about 3 years ago after I meet some new friends that bow hunt and got me into the addiction. I must say it is an addiction. Recently upgraded to a hoyt faktor 30 love this bow. I was able to get my first buck this past season a nice 9pt A nice deer for my area. I hoping to get my first turkey with a bow this spring. But I still love running my dogs and chasing rabbits. Hope to learn from everyone and give a little advice as well.

    haven't hunted rabbits with a bow but have taken a few squirrels from the treestand with a bow and a couple groundhogs. Usually just take the dogs out and run them. Often without a gun.

    Hey Mike. Welcome to the family sir. Looking forward to hearing more of your stories and seeing some pictures of your success this year. And I agree bowhunting can be very addicting.
