RE: Got the Jones!
Hope that shoulder gets well soon Art! I can relate--I haven't layed of shooting due to an injury, I just haven't had nearly enough time. Got to gear up real soon--got my first state championship (GA) coming up in March, and I got a run going there. Took first the year before last, took second last year (tied for first until the last station--arrgghh!), so I guess I'll be gunning for third this year--lol.
Good answer on the crossbow question. I have never owned one, but I've shot two or three. They were fun, but I got bored with them real quick. Rather shoot a .22--don't have to pick up the bullets, and didn't have to be nearly as selective with my targets (shootincones off of a pine treeor balls off of a sweetgum could get expensive, not to mention dangerous, with a crossbow).
