Very well said Scoobiedoo. I live in Ohio and most guys I know hunt with a crossbow or at least own one to have the choice. Hasn't hurt the deer heard at all like you said. In fact they upped the limit in my county this year to 3 deer. 1 Buck and 2 Doe. Seems like heard gets bigger every year and we're doing all we can to keep it in check. We have record #'s killed almost every year and the heard still rebounds to bigger numbers than the year before. Anyone want the exact facts got to ODNR web site for the numbers.
