Crossbow, locked in position, ready to pull the trigger. Recurve, longbow, compound bow..all drawn before shooting. A crossbow is a short distance version of a rifle. Nothing against handicapped persons using them though.

All in all, some sort of rules or limits must be set. Unfortunately for some, the crossbow falls under that category in most states. For example we could say that anyone wanting to use a spear, baseball, rock, blowgun, hand grenade, bazooka, etc. should be allowed. Just as in most states anything smaller than a 20 gauge shotgun is illegal to deer hunt with. Or anything smaller than a 45 caliber muzzleloader is illegal in many states.
