Hello guys, I have been hunting for 2 years with a Bow. This will make my third season, and i got my first kill last year a small 8. I have tremondous respect for this sport and i know that rookie or veteran any thing in bowhunting can go wrong at any point. My question is, I work with a guy that also has been hunting for 2 seasons but hasnt killed a deer with his bow,but he still acts like its the easiest sport in the world. How would you guys deal with this? Unfortanly we hunt the same land because its company property and our stands our only a mile apart. Thanks for any helpful ideas dont want to be rude he is a friend just doesnt seem like he has respect for the sport.
I would let him figure it out himself, he will soon find out that bowhunting is one of the most challenging forms of hunting. There is probably a reason that he hasn't been successful yet. And having stands a mile apart is a really long ways, at least around my parts. Just worry about becoming a better hunter yourself, and help him only if he wants to be helped. That's my opinion.
Welcome! He will come to find that it's not so easy, or maybe it's his way of playin it off but inside he feels otherwise. Just my opinion
Don't worry about him and just hunt. Unless he is doing something wrong to you or the animals, don't sweat it. Like others have said, become a better hunter yourself and if he asks, then tell him what you know.
Welcome to the site! I'd just continue to respectfully do what you do. The best way to convince someone to change is to lead by example. Like other's have said, as long as he's being lawful, don't worry about it too much. Infact, if he doesn't take it too seriously, he may be pushing deer to your side of the property
