They won't become that until the can hunt with a bow.
Yeah, well I don't think you're a bowhunter until you can drop the training wheels and learn how to shoot a real bow.
What do I base that on ? Easy - the same exact reaons you used to judge those bows.
BTW - those kids taking deer with crossbows were FAR more accomplishments that adult men taking deer with compounds IMO. I wish every kid could do what these two did.
