Default RE: NYS crosbow petition

Sproulman,
I think Rich is looking to get crossbowapproved for guys older than 62, not the general hunting public. I would not use one because I am healthy and can shoot a bow. When I get to the age that I cannot pull the bow, I would like to have achoice to use a crossbow.

Rich,
I sent you an email. I am all for it. I hunt with 2 guys that are in there 70's. They cannot pull enough poundage any longer. Excellent life long hunters. It's sad to see them not be able to do something they love. They still go, but the only way they are going to get a deer with the bow is if the deer is blind.
