You might want to try hunting with a gun first. Don't get me wrong, but bow-hunting is much more challenging than gun hunting and it takes allot more time. And for allot of new hunters this is a major turnoff might make them decide not to hunt at all. So I would suggest trying to go hunting with a gun first. Then after you become hooked for life (I'm sure you will) and have learned allot more about hunting, then get into bow-hunting. I fun and easy way to get into hunting is just getting a cheap .22 rifle and go hunt some squrals. Even though it might sound weird, but squrals help teach you allot about hunting other animals like deer.

No Matter what you decide to do, make sure you do it legally with all the right licences and during the right season and you don't trespass to do it. Its not worth the risk of losing your license or worse.
