Ok to clarify this: I use both a compound and a crossbow depending on what stand or terrain i am hunting in. And practice hours and hours with both...... Lets say we both do the exact same prescouting, spent hours selecting the right stand location in relation to time of year, wind, beds, trails and food source, have spend 100 hours practicing with our bows, have got the scentloc suits, a climber or a fixed stand, etc...... Spend hours on stand, nothing, then finally one day (after grunting with our Buckcall) we BOTH get the opportunity of a life time......same day we both have a HUGE buck 20 yards out in a firing lane we cleared out....... we both nail him, direct pass through, deer runs 40 yards and drops, we wait about 30 to 40 mins to decend, pack our gear, gut and drag.......We did everything the same except i used a crossbow and you a compound...... Now does that make me LAZY!!!???? Maybe i have a different view on this since i do use both bows, and i do spend alot of time practicing with both. I dont care how easy it is to shoot or sight in a crossbow, that is not an excuse for not practicing alot of hours with it at different hiegths, angles, etc.....Just becasue at times i use a crossbow (its legal in Ohio) does not classify me as LAZY.

The outdoors is yours, treat it with RESPECT!!!
