To Thesourse i see by your posts you have been busy. Following DJH from site to site while he is promoting the use of crossbows. I can understand your not a fan of our type of Bow. I on the otherhand have watched this same deal go on back in the 50's with longbow against recurve bows! Then they both made up and jumped on the compound bows in late 60's. Now its get the xbows. We should all stand against PETA and other groups like them. Its sad that we don't get along, my xbow is a short range bow 40 yds. if everything is right.I want the choice to use the type of bow i want to hunt with. I wonder why is it the archery hunters don't cry and whine their sniveling to the Rifle hunters, would they get out voted? Yup no doubt about it. We know the rules set forth in this forum and we abide by them. Those who come here should too, go to the archery forum and cry on there, you find some others of your ilk!
