I guess you could look at the fact if you are healthy and want to hunt during archery season in 47 of the 50 states you can't use crossbows.

So that will become 1 more negative to crossbows ... in almost every state in our country you can't hunt during Archery Season .... which happens to be my favorite season, so that is a HUGE negative.

Datamax .. do you not agree? Would you give up "Archery Season" if you live and hunt in any of those 47 states that don't allow them? Are you so convinced they belong you'd give up your ability to hunt archery season to make your point?

If guys like you need to win over guys like me to get crossbows into archery season across the country, I'd say based on the feedback here ... it's going to take a LONG time.
