I have no issues with them either. As I said earlier, I hunted with one when they became legal here in Pa. However, and this is STRICTLY MY OPINION, I believe that the fact that they are always at full draw, there is an advantage right there. You're doing away with the need to draw it, and eliminating that movement/detection possibility. The scope I have on mine adds an advantage as well, making it even more gun like/too easy. This is why I don't use it any more. I took a lot of deer with it in a short span of years. Again,onlyMYOPINION.
