If it is truely a crossbow season only CROSSBOWS should be alloud. In WV only muzzleloaders can be used in ML season according to the regs.
"In the muzzleloader season, only single shot muzzleloaders,
including “in-lines” of .38 caliber or larger are legal. Telescopic
sights are legal. A firearm that has been converted into a
muzzleloader by use of a plug, or a double-barreled or swivelbarreled
muzzleloader is illegal for deer hunting during the
muzzleloader season."
I'm done with this ignorant debate.
