They have excellent units which are accurate to 30 yards.

As for crossbow vs longbows vs compounds; they're all bows, with the limitations of bow energy. Different releases, stored energy vs partially stored energy vs arm strength only. If you use any weapon properly, within the law, you're a sportsman.

I haven't shot a deer the past 2 years. Two years ago I had a doe broadside at 20 yds with no doe tag. She looked beautiful bounding off into the bush. This year, with a tag, I wouldn't take a 40 yd broadside shot at another doe. A crossbow gave me a reason to spend many days standing up a tree watching nature. It isn't a cheap and easy way to fill the freezer.
