Big Country;

you're not average. You've practiced a little bit. I know too many weekend warriors who won't practice. I believe it's better for the deer (and less ammunition for antihunters) to let them have a weapon that they can be accurate with, with little practice. When you're hunting deer in someone's backyard you want clean kills. Now if you could just get people to sight in their crossbows like they're supposed to sight in their rifles, half the battle would be won.

I like crossbow hunting. You have to match all the knowledge of site selection, odour, camoflage, wind, etc, to get your heart beating when get a glimse of a deer coming into range.
