We presume a level of sportsmanship and common sense for shooters that call themselves bowhunters. We can add and and add to rules and never under any circumstances cover the what abouts.
Think about this, the rules do not say that you cannot use a 270 in the hunter class, but common sense dictates that it is probably not legal.
Was it propelled by the string?????? or not??????
Your call!!!!!!!!
