Default RE: please tell me just one negative to crossbows

I'll take that bet!! It's funny how it quickly turned into "standing" when thats not how crossbow hunters will shoot when hunting.
I'll still take that bet!! Make sure the Chevy has a full tank of gas!
Bobo,

I'll make the bet either way

No you cant!! Period! Not you or anyone else can guarantee the same results in every state!!!!!!!!!
Sure I can, I just did. You wanna see me do it again? But your right, I can't be sure but I would again be willing to wager boldly.

Glad you asked. The way I understand it WI has the longest bow season in the U.S. running from sept 15th(<sat closest) to jan 3rd with 9 days of that time going to gun hunters. I see no reason we cant find room in their for a crossbow season. I also think to be fair for all , the seasons should rotate to give all weapon choices a chance during the rut except gun season. There is a reason the DNR has gun season when it does. If gun season were during prime rut it could have devastating results on the deer herd.
Actually ours would be longer then since we can hunt from Oct. 1 - Feb. 15 and we can bowhunt through the gun season BUT other than that I pretty much agree with that. I again think the logical thing to do would be to make the one season all inclusive but if we are going to seperate them I think that is precisely the way to do it.
