RE: Elitist attitude
Power is flickering here, so I'll leave it with this. I don't see why folks don't be honest with themselves and everyone else and simply say "I like them, I like to shoot them, I like to hunt with them, so I want them included in archery season" rather than try to come up with 900 excuses as to why they "really are just another type of bow".
I'm being as honest as I know how. I don't have anything against them, or those who use them--they simply aren't a bow, and don't belong in the archery-only season. Fine and dandy for primitive weapons or firearms though, in my opinion.
