Now you be honest and tell us that the real reason you oppose x-bows is because you don't like the idea that that fella just might shoot a deer that you would have liked to have shot. You think that by keeping the x-bow hunters out, there will be more for you. Pretty selfish I'd say. Well, so much for encouraging hunters to get out there and being happy for whatever success they might have. So much for doing what we can to increase our numbers and hopefully give us more political power to keep our hunting rights. And so much for being honest.
