Default RE: Elitist attitude

No matter how you look at it folks a crossbow is always at full draw and locked when a hunter is settled in and waiting. There's no ways around that argument for the people who are capable of pulling a compound/recurve/longbow back. Thats the huge difference to me between a crossbow and bow.
Several pages back this was stated (as it always is) as a superior advantage- not drawing so the game can see you.
I asked then how this "advantage is any different then the one gained from shooting from inside a ground blind or 25 ft up a tree. If one is not allowed should not both be banned?
I predicted few if any would respond.
I was right - again - no one ever soes.

Another fact is that not one season has been ruined by the inclusion of crossbows - most are longer now then before.
So the sky will fall arguement has NO BASIS in real real results - just another emotional scare tactic.
