Things change, certainly, but there are many changes that are not for the better. I've been thinking for at least 10 years now that archery tackle advances have been heading down the wrong road. All your arguments for the crossbow simply enforce my belief.

I'd like to see regulations inacted nationwide that limit mechanical releases only to use by the disabled, minimum arrow weights of no less than 400 grains, mechanical broadheads banned completely, no electronic devices allowed on the bow, no scope sights allowed, letoff limited to a maximum of 65%, a total ban on the drawlock device... I've gotten so disinchanted with modern compound tackle that I'm sorry I ever soiled my hands with a compound.[:'(]
