Well I don't really know how ODNR gets its info. On compound & Xbow #s. Last year thay asked but this year thay didn't.
And on the movement my compound is hung on a hanger by my side. Inwitch it is slipped of and brought to full draw. 18" to 32" at the most.
My Xbow either sets on my lap or on my treestand foot rest. Inwitch I have to raise it up in front of me witch is anywhere from 18" to 22" not counting the movement that I have grabing for it with the hand thats not holding it. If your moving more with your compound I dont know what your problem is Arthur. I see no point in large body movements. Unless you go to stand up with your compound or a Xbow. Large body movements are then need.
Looks like Taxas is alittle money hungry as is Ohio.Ohio see more money coming from bow hunters more and more each year. My be some day we might not need to GUN hunt. I like that more and more as I get older in my years as a bow hunter.
So be it Long bow, recurve bow, compound bow, or Xbow thay are bows inwitch thay all should fall under bow season.
Like Gun season should have guns to be used to the point of not to indanger the public.
