I went home for lunch today and i was watching the Outdoor Channel. Our old buddy Keith Warren came on. I usually can't stand the guy and this time was no different, but I was interested in the show due to this very topic. He was bragging about the fact that two first time crossbow hunters were going hog hunting. The guide basically took 5 minutes to teach the two fishing guides how to shoot the crossbow, and next thing you see is them in the stand. Both shot hogs, but it also appeared that both shots were a little high and a bit far back. Both animals were recovered. My point is, I wonder how many people do this very thing? Go to Academy the night before season, pick out a crossbow, maybe shoot at a pie plate and go hunting. Keith Warren was even praising the crossbow for getting more people to archery hunt. I know people do the same thing with rifles every year too, but I don't think crossbows should be used in archery season.
