Most don't want crossbows for fear more people will hunt during the archery season and shoot "their" deer.
I have not seen one logical reason tonot make them legal.
So far we have
1.It's easier
2.Protecting our bowhunting tradition
IMO, both of these are pretty lame. I will preach until I die.
HUNTING IS SUPPOSE TO BE FUN

We all have choices, if YOU want it hard go ahead, if I want it hard, I should have the right to choose how hard IMO.
My grandpa has hunted with a CrossBow for over a decade now, yes he had to go through a test. Which was nuts IMO.
