[QUOTE="Headhunter, post: 5532928, member: 652"] For me, hunting from a shooting house (I am not against it and all for anyone hunting from one) but to me, especially with a bow, not sure if makes it unfair, but it for sure masks human scent and movement (drawing a bow) and for me personally take away from the "hunting experience". I have shot a fairly large amount of does from a shooting house, but to me in some way it is not hunting. And I have walked, hunted, sat through some miserable, horrible weather and I for sure thought it would be great to have a nice shooting house to sit in, but it is still not for me. Maybe when I get few more years on me, I will hunt from them or if health forces that issue, but being in the outdoors, the heat, the cold, rain, snow, wind, nice days, bad days, etc. is what I love most about hunting, being in the elements. Bow hunting to me, as much as I try to get as close to a deer as I can before shooting, but drawing the bow back and not being busted is a huge part of the hunt. And I have been busted way more than I care to remember. [/QUOTE]
