i am not going to read through 26 pages of this argument however i think that cross bows should only be allowed after the bow season during muzzeloader. that is the way it is here in PA and i couldn't agree more.

where cross bows are far from being anything like hunting with a gun they are also nothing like a bow in my mind. traditional or compounds are what BOW season should be for. just like guns have their own seasons Xbows should to and it shouldn't be during the bow season. hell they have scopes on them and are more like a rifle then a bow in my mind

i know disabled (sp) people use them and that is great however like i said before it shouldn't be during bow season.

WHAT if you were 12 and where to weak to draw a bow back and couldn't pull the xbow sting back dose that mean it is okay to use a rifle during the bow season? i think not
