Jeff is NC offically called bow season? Or is it Archery Season? I do not know of a state that has "Bow" season.
When Hillary turns ten she will be able to hunt with archery tackle. If I can get her shooting over 35 lbs she will use her bow, if not then we have to wait. If xbows are legal we will be sitting in a blind together hunting with Gramps 10 point Xbow.

Again someone please show me data where xbows hurt the herd for deer season? Anyone?

Jeff you have every right to write lawmakers at ask for what you did above. I do not disagree one bit. Again like most in this discussion you go right off the deep on.
If we start seperating seasons, well you know whatwe should, lets go off the deep end

From now on will have

Traditional season
Cross Bow
Compound

Gun:
Rifle season
Shotgun
Pistol

ML
Flint Lock
Traditional
Those things that are called ML, but shoot better than any shotgun

Since we cannot share the woods and hunt as hunters, lets make the split.

BTW that is how it sounds when folks say, let just hunt with any weapon[8D]
