So that means that if placed on a rest of some sort, that a compound bow would still not be as capable of that accuracy......
This is getting ignorant..... I never , ever , placed the crossbow I shot on any type of rest - other than my hand as a support underneath..... Last time I checked, there were no wooden stools up in my climbing stand..... no hay bales either...... come on people, the lame arguments are showing your true bias......
I have used them, and there is nothing wrong with them..... and they have not harmed Arkansas Hunting in over 25 years...... get over it......

Well Michael since you and Art own and use one I would have to say your opinion is Bias.
If your stand does not have a shooting rail, I can send you a picture of me shooting one off of my knee, it's easy and much more accurate than free hand, almost as good as the prone.
I said I used to own one..... I no longer do, and I no longer hunt with one, and I haven't for years ..... So no sir I am not biased, but I am informed. And I'm not scared..... I look at reality, and the reality is that it has very , very little impact on the harvest numbers, and on the additional hunter numbers. In all my years, I have only seen 1 hunter with a crossbow..... other than myself, back when.
