Because there are more folks hunting with crossbows than regular bows there according to their 2003 Harvest Summary . Crossbows were liberalized in Ohio over 20 years ago .
Kevin, you just made my point that crossbows are easier. The numbers in Ohio speak for themselves, there are more guys shooting crossbows because it's easier. At least that's my opinion....why else would so many use them?
As far as relaxing about it....doubtful! As soon as the opponents relax in any debate they get hammered. Why would it be any different in this case? I can't speak for Indiana's hunters, but in PA we have more than a few bad apples. Not most or anyting of the sort, but there are plenty....simply a product of the numbers I assume.
