How can you fight for what you want if there is no season to hunt in ? How can you generate interest in a tool if it's only practical use is shooting targets in the back yard ?
In this state, just coming this fall crossbows will be allowed during our firearms seasons, our early muzz. season and our late archery/flintlock season. That tells me that somebody wants crossbows in pretty bad since just last year you couldn't use them at all or in limited special regs areas. I don't really want to generate interest in crossbows, and from what I've read/heard(you know how that is) the big push for crossbows isn't coming from sportsman as much as it is coming from crossbow manufactures....I don't know how much truth there is to that, but I do know they're involved.
Like them or not they're headed for a woods near you , maybe not this year but sooner than you think.
I don't like it, but you're right, it's going to happen! Sooner or later I'll have to accept that, but for now I won't.
