RE: Crossbows introduced for regular archery season in PA
BT just reminded me that bowhunters have left themselves wide open for the introduction of X-bows by harvesting 25 % of the buck harvest but only 16% of the antlerless harvest. The preseason antlered to antlerless ration is around 1 antlered to 3 or 4 antlerless ,yet archers only harvested 6050 more antlerless than buck. That means ,on average they passed on one heck of a lot of antlerless deer while waiting for that AR legal buck.
