RE: using a crossbow?
Oh, I have also come to terms that the site I like to visit accepts sponsors that sell canned "hunts". Hunting as a whole has been going downhill sometime and the acceptance and validation that Hunting.net gives canned hunts is no different really.
I personally do not accept killing non-wild animals as hunting, and thats what matters most. My kids will see this, understand the difference and the world will continue to rotate (I think).
Will canned hunts be the demise of hunting as we know it ? It will contribute, no doubt, and its provable that it already has.
