Sounds like the same ole "Pa BS Rhetoric" to me,,,and whats more,,,most of the guys pissin and moanin about x-bows bein legalized are the same guys that have been pushin "thin the herd" for the last 6 years,,,(not that x-bows will kill any more deer than the common recurve). I cant believe a true hunter would try to limit another hunter as to what he/she may use to pursue their love ofthe sport. X-bows have been legal here in Va. for i think 5 years and i have yet to see 1 hunter with a x-bow on public lands (which i hunt alot) and to try to push the idea that legalizing x-bows will somehow intise hunters to road hunt is totally absurd! But then again,,,you have the few like "Ole Sproulman" who has somehow reincarnated himself to the likes of "Robin Hood" who shoots 5 shots into the same hole with his x-bow that will keep this kinda BS Rhetoric filling the hunting forums
