reylamb - I got your stance and someone elses swapped then - my confusion and apologies for doing that. It was suggested a seperate season fro crossbows - i was replying to that line of thought.

in all seriousness - IF you can every show me one shread of proof that legal crossbows in deer season either (A) result in a reduction of deer season or (B) reduction in deer herd or (C) in general a negative impact to archery season that compounds don't impact the same way, I'll gladly join the cause to fight crossbows in legal archery season. I have yet to be given one single shred of evidence that they do though and because everything points tto them being positives to archery, I can't argue to NOT allow them based on selfish, personal reasons alone.
