I’m planning to go deer hunting this year and I’m setting aside some cash to buy a rifle or shotgun, I’ve heard suggestions to get both, so I’m asking poal, what kind of gun would be best for deer hunting for someone that has very little experience with guns?

A good resource. You may want to ask local hunters (not affiliated with the gun shops), too. Although be advised, many have their own preconceptions and may not necessarily be suggesting what's right for you.

That would seem to be the case as I've already got several conflicting opinions.

LOL - and you will. That's what makes this a hard question to answer. Everyone familiar with guns has their own personal ideas on the matter.

Well that just makes this all the more complicated! I was hoping for a "this is exactly what you want" type answer. I suppose its just not going to be that easy.
