Silent's point..... as we have learned that he lives in a very very bad neighborhood and his children will join gangs and do drugs if they don't get to shoot crossbows during archery season.
It is not "my" season, it is all of us archers season. I also hunt with ML's, rifles and shotguns .. and I must wait every year to use them. I love my bow, but also love to grab my shotgun and hunt birds or chase bears ... it's ok that hunters must wait till their appropriate season. Each year we wait till fall to hunt deer, wait till spring to hunt turkeys... it's part of the sport... waiting.
Well MaJay I did grow up in a real bad neighbor hood. I have been shot at once and cut with a knife twice and I watched a guy get stabbed 37 times my second week of junior high. I live in a much better place now but if you don't think there is meth and or drugs in your neighborhoods than you are a fool. This thread isn't about people waiting it's about your arogance and you your greed and your need to feel special. So say they should all just have to wait. Well I guess that means the handi-capped shouldn't be able to shoot crossbows wither (though you have flipped flopped on that issue
). No difference is there? Just make them wait. If you aren't capable of shooting a compound then you don't deserve to hunt? That's your basic argument right?
