hmmm..all i wanted was a little input on this issue and perhaps a small argument of wich i didnt mean bash anybodies hunting methods.i can tell brotherjack is a crossbow hunter..and if i offended you i apologize. and you do have to admit that most crossbow hunters are only at it a couple of times a year.
how long have you owned a crossbow BJ?
I am a Bowhunter, strictly a bow!
Contrary to what you believe BJ, most "bow hunters" that I know don't pick up a gun ever.

Again, amen! Let's spend our time working on the real problems facing us, not fighting over what kind of arrow launcher should/shouldn't be legal (or other equally silly points of division amongst ourselves we might find to argue over).Originally Posted by J_T

where do you dream this up onesock?????
See my earlier comments about the (ir)relevance of personal experience when we're defining a demographic. I didn't mean to imply that was my belief, I was just continuing with a bit of tongue in cheek sarcasam I had started in an earlier post... (though it is true, of the various bowhunters I know, I don't know any who don't put down the bow come opening day of rifle season).Originally Posted by Onesock

same old story,,,why would anyone bring a knife (bow) to a gun fight?? lol i'm a bowhunter and i look forward to the late season every year, so i'd like to keep the bow season,,i usually don't hunt deer anymore during rifle season even tho i own about 17 firearms and 1 bow,, but i DO take my kids out since they love the sport that i showed them and that they grew up with.so for the love of the sport let's not spoil it for everyone,wether one hunts with a bow,crossbow or a gun.
no vegetables here
Well Brother jack you know one now!! Willy or Swamper can attest to the fact that all I hunt with is a compound bow . MikeOriginally Posted by brotherjack

Crossbows are, and should be kept, legal to hunt with during archery seasons.
Elitism stinks.
Knowledgeable shooters agree- The 375 Ruger is the NEW KING of all 375 caliber cartridges. ALL HAIL THE NEW KING!
I am a hunter. Period. If they had a wet-noodle season, I'd take to the field in a heartbeat if I had practiced and was proficient enough with said noodle to put some meat on the table.Originally Posted by Ddog
Every day spent in the bush hunting - be it with camera, crossbow, rifle, or otherwise - is a good day in my book. When I get the chance to schedule my life, I try to fit in as many good days as I can.
