Default RE: Opinions on Crossbows

Rybo the guys who have fought for xbows in MI are guys who used to bowhunt, but no longer canpull a bow back.

One bad back
One a bad hip, etc

There just guys who want to hunt. Yes guys will pick it up who think it's "easy" to kill a deer with one.
Having played with my Grandfathers Xbow now that he meets the 80% rule, I find them terrible for archery hunting. Too heavy and clumspy IMO.

Even if legal here I would never use one if I can shoot a bow
