Just want to let anyone interested Know about the ACF. Most of you that have had an xbow for anytime already either know about it or are probably already members. The dues are only $20 a year, which includes a subscription to HBM, a great read on anything related to xbows, put out quarterly. There are numerous other advantagers to being a member, and I believe you can still get a free issue to check it out at bowtwang@charter.net. There's alot of "twang" there for the money, and it's a good org to support.

Good questions guys, not sure I have the answers. I know that they have a record book type thing for crossbow kills, and did have an article in a back issue about standard range/competition requirements, but I pass all my back issues on to future xbowers, so have no reference matls. You can get ahold of Daniel Hendricks at 320-634-3660, I'm sure he can answer your questions.
