Squirrel, you're just a fountain of info! LOL! Getting kinda crusty early in life I see!
Fourteen years old and you're a curmugeon already!
Buttermilkranch, first question for you, why not use a 50 lb compound?
I use a crossbow because its fun and. The other reason is because when I'm hunting in cold weather and I am wearing bulky clothing I know my shooting is going to be much better. Another reason is because it is legal and ethical. The last reason? Because I want to! LOL!
