In honoring the spirit of Franks request and the rules of this forum I will not respond in kind. BTW continually claiming someone has no knowledge is akin to name calling. I have cited the only study to be found in an extensive web search and quoted some of the results. I invite anyone reading this to help me find this elusive Texas study. I don't know where else to look<img src=icon_smile_question.gif border=0 align=middle>
We have strayed from the original subject. modern rifle is not an inline is not a flintlock is not a crossbow is not a compound is not a longbow is not a spear. Ther are fundamental differences which must be addressed. Not all rules fit in all places. All the other weapons are pretty much seperated into seperate seasons with the exception of traditional/compound bows. I and, it appears most other bowhunters feel there is too large a difference between compounds and crossbows to put them in the same class. I for one hope that it stays that way.
