I think they should be allowed in all state for everyone.. THey have really NO advantage over a compound, beside they are allready cocked.. Otherwise there's NO advantage.. Ireally agree with the Kid thing, and also for older people.. My dad is 73 , has a hard time pulling a bow, which makes it harder to be accurate.. Yet the State of Michigan will not allow him to shoot a crossbow.. They would rather him be out there shooting a stick and possible wounding a deer because of his strength problem.. Man, legalize the damn crossbows already.. We are allowed to use them during RIFLE season.. But not Muzzleloader season.. Can't figure that one out.. Can't use them LATE season either...
