I am a hoosier too, and what you said
"With that said, I agree that crossbows are not archery. But I do from year to year hunt with one. Usually 2-3 days of late season and mainly because it is another legal form of deer hunting."

This is true of most who use a crossbow, and a good many who buy inline,209 primered, pyrodex fired, scope sighted "Muzzle loaders"
It's just another way to extend their season, or take another deer.
Nothing against you guy, but I think we should only have Primative and Modern seasons. Primative would mean weapons of pre-1860 design, and Modern should be everything else (including modern compounds) I can hear the howls now! Certainly the "Modern" season should be longer.
