You live in Port Orchard and have one of the best archery ranges 10 minutes from your house in the NW US. 18 holes and 10 to 80 range over 60 acres. KBH is just out of gorst and will have you addicted to achery in one trip. Some great shops to buy bows as well.

Besides, just something about the joy of releasing an arrow. No cloud of powder in front, no kick, no boom, just a wishhhhhh. Then time slows, you watch the arrow that seems like an over shot, it must be to high flashes in your mind, but it is dropping, it is dropping........wait for it, Smack!!!!!!! You can play it over and over for weeks/months in your mind. Just unreal to be that close and personal, then watch the arrow fly and drop right into the vitals. The forest birds do not even quit chirping. Animal 10 feet from the chosen target do not know what happened. Hell the animal itself does not.

Bow all the way. Archery elk for sure. Just dont put in for my units.........Wait, now that I think about it ML is your better choice. Much better hunts. Listen to Dogfish.
