I hunt exotics and hogs each year on different bowhunting only ranches in Texas and consider it challenging and a welcome escape from the cold here in Wyoming in January. But it's not the same as hunting whitetails or elk on public ground. But the again I don't consider hunting deer or elk on managed property to be the same as hunting deer or elk on public property or national forest. Whatever you hunt or whatever way you choose to hunt if you bowhunt it makes the playing field a lot different. I hunt with rifle, pistol, shotgun and bow so I know of what I speak.
