Hey captain obvious, if you didn't want to participate in the discussion, you could have kept your mouth shut and not looked stupid like you are. Of course its up to the state, we all know that, thats what were discussing. KEEP UP

Whether he is Joe Hunter or Joe Army Hunter doesn't matter. If he wants to hunt in the rut he is going to have to go to some sporting goods store in one of the 50 states and plop down $500 - $1000 for either a gun, ML or bow set up depending on what your state allows.
Before archery made its comeback, most sportsman homes had a rifle to be used for deer hunting. All of mine did. Rifles passed down. But to protect your industry, now you want the hunter to go and spend a pile more. Kinda like a Bigbulls goverment bailout I guess. In other words for those that have trouble keeping up, the rifle was the norm. And for those who have issues keeping up, if you had some experience under your belt, you would realize most states cater the rut around archery gear. But obviously you didn't know that, you only know flordia. Geez, real shocker.

Nice attempt at putting words in my mouth.
Try harder next time because this time you FAIL.
BB, what do you think most arrow gun hunters are putting on thier arrow guns? Tell yourself whatever you need to help you feel brighter. You need all the help you can get.
