Welcome to the boards!
lots of info to be had here, where I live in Ontario Canada the crossbow is just as accepted as a vertical, I feel kinda lucky for that.
I hunt from a from time to time, mine is pretty easy, it rides like a back pack, I take it out toss it in the air and it lands as a full two man blind. Folding it back up takes a bit of finesse, but now only takes me about 10 seconds.
Sounds like a nice bow you are going to be shooting! Hunt safe!
