could very well be.

if in-line season was not so big now in oct,i think crossbow sales would be very high.

they will sell to ones that are archery hunting now that have compound bows, thats what i am hearing.

cost is not going to get many to buy a crossbow other than the compound users.

i could be wrong there too, i will just have to watch the affects of it and report back.

early in-line season is somewthing i never thought of until i talked to a lot of hunters.

when we had like 5 deer you could get, a lot more wanted to hunt in archery.

now, with early in-line season,it seems that most are putting their time in there.

lack of deer is another reason.

all this is affecting things so quick,its hard to get feel of what will happen.

i can only watch what i see at range, gunshops and the archery season.

no doubt the compound shooters will switch to a crossbow, thats going to happen, i hear it.
