It's legal so why not. Anything that gets more hunters in the woods is a great thing in my opinion. I wish other NY'ers shared the same views I did on this. I still won't join NY Bowhunters because of this. I personally have seen 3x people in other states that were able to hunt again because of crossbows and otherwise would not have been out there. Who are we to say they aren't allowed to hunt? They are welcome on my patch anytime...........
