Germ, are you meaning so you can be more stealthy and minimizing your movement with the crossbow - i.e., rising and immediately aiming and firing the xbow once you have a clear lane versus having to rise, draw back, aim and release. That couple of seconds could mean all the difference.
yes that is it. You can lay flat on the ground. Xbow is a tool for shooting deer. This is a good use for one.
GR8 a buddy mine in MI had the same issue. He had a permit for an Xbow. He just layed on his belly and caught the big boy walking through the field.
