I want to hear from crossbow hunters
After reading the sticky post: The enemy within and Dan Hendricks (sp?) article I started thinking... What do I have against people who want to hunt with a crossbow...
.. and then it hit me: Who do I know who has one or has used one?
Truth is: Nobody, except a few psycho jerks who aren't even hunters, just crazy kids or psychos who think it's cool to use something they dreamed about when they played (or play) Dungeons and Dragons.
I've read arguments for and against hunting with crossbows, but all of them use far too much overhashed rhetoric and generalizations to either sway my opinion or make me more confident in it.
So, now I would really like to know from a crossbow hunter what his motivation is to use that form of "weapon". How did he/she get started, that sort of thing.
