Increase blood flow during a kill, and adrenaline floods the body to sharpen senses and reflexes. Like a Wolf, a natural predator. (?) Are we really natural predators?

Felons and bow hunting? I cannot help but be devistted about the comments that I see posted about ex-felons hunting. I myself am an ex-felon and an avid outdoorsman. I made a MISTAKE when I was 19 and now at 30 people make me sick when I read there stupid comments. EVERYONE has done something stupid in their lives, if you think that because of that someone should NEVER be able to even bowhunt as a sport than you yourself should be held accountable for all your actions. This is America and not Iraq. And to all you people who think that I cannot even own a hunting knife you are mistaken. You can in most states hunt with a bow. I am ok with never owning a firearm, and I will hunt with a bow, my life is not over. Let you who cast the first stone be judged the same. Enjoy your life. Even as a felon you are human. Dont let judgemental idiots scare you. No firearms, but bow hunting is ok. Federal laws NEVER will stop you from hunting, but be sure to check your state laws.
