By accepting the extra challenges that come with hunting with a conventional bow, a bowhunter "earns" a longer season. We are understandably concerend that the longer season we have earned might be shortened by those looking for an easier way. I have no problem withhunting by a less challenging method till it threatens the one that so many archers have worked so hard for.
BTB, how gracious you are w/ praise for yourselves! Gawd, it must be great to sit in your treestand w/ yur compound and feel you have "earned" the rights ot be the only ones in the woods! I am hunitng small gane at the same time you are in that tree, but you probably don't feel I should be in your earned woods! You and your Org. are a trip! You play it like you are or use both weapons, but the entire comparison is slanting down hill for your compound boys to again have your own season. Forgetting that I pay for a license, pay taxes and have a voice and opinion. IN fact my opinion certaninly does not degrade other types of weapons nor ask for "my! earned right to be in the woods!" I don't care what you are in the woods with, we need more hunters in the woods. Agaoin, I will be humting w/ my Xbow next year in the woods at the same time you are, that was told to me by a source in Horton for you copnspiracy theories.
