Tom, if I have to be serious then I have to disagree. I've read so many debate threads here, in the Excal forum and in AT. The trolls have facts fired off at them and it makes no difference at all. It just boringly goes back and fo

rth and the "opposition" just blabs and blabs. Why waste the info? They are there not to learn nor do they learn or listen. .............
Dnk the bigger picture is not the troll or the spammer it is the people that read on the sideline and do not post much. you kow, the people that are trying to learn the truth about crossbows. It is for them that I prove the anti's are incorrect in their statments. I know that very few of the trolls will learn or change, but the people on the sideline is what is important. Educate them with the truth and civil dialog, they will respect crossbow people better.

tom, you have GRIT..you are open to opposite views..DNK, was my friend,he helped me a lot but does not want to hear TRUTH of what is causing so much bad feeling when it comes to crossbows..sad, he seems like nice guy and very helpful..

will a troll change, yes,tom,when crossbows are legaliized this bad feeling the archery hunters have will be gone..those same hunters WILL be using a crossbow..except SPROULE,unless i get to point i cant pull my bear kodiack anymore..will i hate all crossbow hunters in woods,YES,but i went through this when the compound hunters arrived..

troll as some of you say is bad name to use for others that dont share same opinion as yours..

i think having views here is great thing,if the forum would stop this i feel that it would be great disservice to all of us..

as of now, i will not be commenting on this type of subject ,only on PM as some want us banned or shot or hung because our views are different than others..

remember as i said, its not the CROSSBOW that is hated, its the NEW CROSSBOW hunters that are invading archery season,do to lack of deer here in wmu2g,feeling are not good between hunters..

here is deer count in my hunting area..in year 1960, 25 deer per mile,1973 when compound bows started, it was around 15 deer per mile, now its 3 deer per mile here in my area in 2006..

this is why archery hunters are concerned, they dont want more hunters and more DOE killing when there are very few deer left..we had it real nice and now its not..call it greedy or ignorant or diarreaha as some called me,oh yes, TROLL is another but if TRUTH is not heard,neverwill therebe good feeling between archery hunters..

i did not ever comment to stir pot,all of you like crossbows ,others dont..isnt it great that both can share a view or opinion of hunters,even if we dont agree..
ok now imma add my .02 cents, i use my crossbow in general season, and now that i ordered a bow, i will use that in archery season, but to blame all the deer killing on crossbow hunters, I THINK I WOULD BLAME YOUR WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM, FOR NOT DOING THERE PART, AND POACHERS.......POOR MANAGEMENT REALLY HURTS YOUR WILDLIFE , THAN A TYPICAL HUNTER OF ANY SEASON.....JMO
tx, i was not implying that bows did herd in, its was doetags that did that..i was trying to show that there are not deer their was years ago with LESS archery hunters, now we had a few deer left and a lot more archery hunters...
