I do not believe crossbows belong in bow season because they do not operate like a bow.
let's see then, maybe they can take a week AWAY from the bow hunters (of which I am one) and give it to the xbows. now how would that be???? stop being so selfish. the woods are there for everyone, not just bowhunters. i am sick of the me, me, me attitude (sounds a lot like the good ol NY Bowhunters propaganda - the woods are ours - stay out). if we try to work together, things would be better for all.
give xbows a 5, 7, 9 day season somewhere(a licensed season). beginning of bow, end of bow, whenever. i'm not going to beat down the doors to get them approved (not gonna fight tooth & nail against either), but if it happens, so be it. better to be proactive and work together than beat each other up over something that, in the big sceam of things isn'treally really worth fighting over
