| I live in Ohio, but I don't like to hunt deer here because rifles aren't allowed. I'm not a bow hunter, and "gun season" allows for only slug guns or shotguns, and it's only about 2 weeks out of the season. So instead I hunt wild boar which are allowed to be harvested with a rifle. They aren't interbred with domestic hogs like you find in the south, but actual pure strain Eurasian boar.
However, I did take a trip to the Adirondacks this year for deer, and ended up with a doe. Shot it with my Marlin 308 Express. |

They're a whole lot easier than a bow to shoot well. |

| | Spike Drinks, Not Trees | Living in the Nashville city limits, it is probably not a good idea to shoot it with a firearm. I have several bows. We'll have to wait and see what happens in September. |
