With bow hunting, all you need is a bow, arrows, release, camouflage clothing, and large heads. Gun hunting is more expensive than bow hunting because you need a certain type of gun for each shooting season. The average gun costs about $600. So, camouflage clothing, bullets and other things make it more expensive than bow hunting. Even though gun hunting is more expensive, many people still choose gun hunting over bow hunting because it is easier to do and there is a greater chance of killing a deer because they can be taken at distances longer than an arc can accurately be.
