Because your point above is EXACTLY true of ML, shotguns and rifles... and guess what, they each have their own seasons.... you write it, but don't understand what you type.
Well one of us certainly doesn't understand. Because during gun season where rifles are legal you can shoot a shotgun, rifle, or pistol in the same season.
No, the line already exists. Crossbows just ended up on the wrong side for your liking. Try as you will, they aren't on the archery side.
I am not going to shoot one anyway so my liking is on the side of the best interest of others and the sport not my own personal preference, unlike you. Also, some states and alot of people disagree with you about which side they fall on and the tide is turning toward more and more states saying they fall on the same side of archery that you do.
They didn't "allow" compounds to be considered legal archery equipment. It qualified by meeting all of their defined criteria already. They have ALWAYS been considered bows. After 50 pages I would think you'd have figured out it was the crossbow that isn't considered a bow and it doesn't meet the legal criteria to qualify for archery season.
I think you may need to check your history because after compounds were invented the DNR's did have to go back and re-write the laws to either allow them or not. Some states did that quicker the others.
Guess what? They are out of archery season. That doesn't mean they can't hunt though!
Guess what? With hunters with attitudes like yours, we may all be out of archery season before long
Like I said before with hunters lobbying against other hunters, we don't really need anti-hunters.
Asking someone to wait is now a bad thing?
You tell me if you kid has to wait and looses interest and starts running with the wrong crowd was making them wait a bad thing? But why should they have to wait because they don't have the same physical ability as someone else? Is that descrimination based on physical ability?
We should all roll over for some impatience from a few crossbow hunters
Why do you have to rollover. What would it hurt you anyway? what effect would it have on you? Why do you deserve to be in the woods and they don't?
