I've got news for you. Anything beyond a bent tree branch with deer sinew for string and fire hardened sharpened sticks for arrows is a "bow plus." Next thing you know some people with that philosophy will come out of the woodwork, then some of you compound bow and recurve people can debate them when they say that they dont want you fellas out in the woods at the same time as them.[&o]
And if the majority of people aren't interested in using a particular weapon, then they won't even if it is made legal. So, an economic/politicla argument can only go so far.
I've got news for you as well
I still have to pull my recurve/longbow back in the presence of an animal to shoot woods, aluminums, carbons, etc, unlike the crossbow. That animal still has to be with in 15 to 20 yards no matter if I'm using the three arrows I mentioned or If I was using an obsidian head. The distance doesn't change anything much (maybe a tad closer possibly with using the old rocks) thus the challenge is 100% still there though. I would appreciate my animal allot more though if I made my arrows out of a tree and sharpened my own rocks, no dought about it! Bottom line is I still have to pull my 73lb recurve back in the presence of an animal like a bow is suppose to be used!! Use your crossbow, I don't really care! I'm not a big crossbow fan but unfortunately times are changing and I have to except it for what it is, it doesn't mean I gotta like it though.
