Cossack, in WI crossbows will be legal next year for all ages. And currently, 65+ year olds can use them. In MN you can not use them at your age? If that is the case, you should contact your state legislators and at least work on making them legal for older hunters. Better yet, get a bunch of hunters like yourself to contact the legislators. Just mention the word "discrimination" and those lawmakers will, in fear, do whatever you ask.
