Z- If you're so dead set on getting crossbows into bow season, then why don't you and others of like mind expend your energies toward setting up a crossbow season instead of horning in where crossbows are not welcome by the vast majority?

Crossbow people are constantly pointing fingers at people that oppose them and accuse them of being divisive, when there would be no division at all if they weren't trying to force themselves on everyone else. If someone you don't know comes into your home and tells you they are moving in, whether you like it or not, would you be buddy-buddy with them or would you be kicking some serious butt?

Now, in states where bow season is several months long, then I think those places should set aside a month of that season for crossbow shooters. In places where there is only a month or less of bow season, them crossbow yayhoos can pound sand. They can do like the rest of us bowhunters that hunt with our bows in general season.
