Your nuts!
Injury is not the why someone shoots a compound.If you feel that way then lets outlaw the xbow altogether for everyone, because if your hurt you can use a compound!
Improvement is not evolution!
longbow to recurve to compound are improvements on the same design!
The xbow is the evolution of the bow into something new altogether.
