Just this guy thinks if you had a bolt and arrow of same weight with same drag, that the bolt is going to loose KE faster.
I don't know why ya'll are even arguing that, a crossbow arrow and a compound arrow, well even a good old POC shaft all have such different characteristics that its impossible they'd have the same drag, even as they fly, if for nothing else than archer's paradox after leaving the string.

I've really come to see that BC has mental issues. I've never seen anyone so angry. I bet you are devorced at least once maybe several times.....if not your wife is a saint.

Can you show me were a bow shoots the same velocity, same fletch, same drag, same, weight, same everything you want as axbow? Thats the whole point they don't. Sure if everything was equal to start they may but thats not real life and you know it. They shoot different arrow lenths, weight, etc....

I did say they have the same killing range but that doesnt mean that one isn't easier for a untrained person to do it. That has nothing do do with this agrument. I said same range....a bow will take a person with better training but they still have the same range....keep up.

Honestly, too rediculus to even give a reply. Are you high today?

you're trying to find a way to continue justifying your ridiculousness ....... its failing miserably

I have posted the negatives, I have seen, go back thru the pages and find. Brad, your not worth the effort honestly.

I never said my gun was legal archery gear. Another lie by you.

Brad, are you diabled? Are you unstable. Oh yea, its vertigo. In your head, right?

Dude, you want to use a crossbow, go for it, you don't have to make up these stories to your freinds. Oh yea, what was it a few years ago? You couldn't get penetration, so you bought a tradtech? Justification after justification. Now, its vertigo. I see.

no, guns are NOT legal archery equipment in Maryland. See the above rules and regulations. Go to Maryland, buy a non-res license and go into archery season with a 30.06 and see what happens.

I doubt that. You might have 2 depredation permits allowing you to kill crop damaging wildlife, but that doesn't mean the archery season is allowing you to do it nor does it mean your gun is legal archery equipment.

The G&F likely uses dyamite outside of trapping season for nuisance beavers.

Does that mean dynamite is legal means to kill beavers? why no ........ even a kid can see the difference. look it up




BTW what is this arrowgun you speak of? Can you give me a link to it please? I'm very curious, I cannot find it anywhere and I've searched wikipedia, m-w.com, Maryland's web site .......... I simply cannot find it anywhere.

Maybe its where the boofalongmongalong is? Because that word I cannot find either.






ok, I'll cal you out on this one - show me the negative. give me factual negative of what the crossbow did to your season/bag limits or other impacts to Maryland archery season. Go ahead, and believe you me if you can show me something, I'll be against crossbows right there with you.

go on boy




they're managing their herds right now, people like you are left behind while they do it. sorry, that's the truth




LOL you're big on the whole " liar liar, pants on fire" thing today aren't you?

I didn't accuse, I didn't call you a liar, I stated the obviousness of your insistant posts. Nothing more, nothing less.

None the less IF that was what you wanted to show, lets look at the Maryland G&F regulations to see what they say hm?


Oh, looky there .......... no mention of "gun" anywhere, "gun" isn't attached but I do see "bow" attached.

Must be a bow then huh? Maryland says it is

I can see you don't know quite a few things. No, its not impossible for two projectiles to have the same drag. You could use two same diameter alum arrow and bolt and use a wieght system.

Its clear, your not a long range rifle shooter by that statement.

It still blows my mind how those that use Xbows want to be incuded in the archery world! A cross bow is merely a gun that shoots a bolt... How is that archery?

It should be for the disabled only!

Yea, show that dignity. Put downs again.

Can you show me were a bow shoots the same velocity, same fletch, same drag, same, weight, same everything you want as axbow? Thats the whole point they don't. Sure if everything was equal to start they may but thats not real life and you know it. They shoot different arrow lenths, weight, etc....
I can show you thats not what you said earlier

I did say they have the same killing range but that doesnt mean that one isn't easier for a untrained person to do it. That has nothing do do with this agrument. I said same range....a bow will take a person with better training but they still have the same range....keep up.
Show me where I said different. Or do you not have dignity or are you a liar?

I think if we try hard, I bet we can get to 60 pages before end of next week. But starting a new project next week, and won't be able to contribute as much.

sigh ...... they're not guns, that's a proven fact, try to pass a concealed weapons permit with one.

It should be for the disabled only!
but I don't understand ......... if a crossbow is a gun, you're wanting guns allowed in archery season for handi-cap right? and if a crossbow is a gun, you wouldn't mind the handi-cap using a 30.06 then?

but of course you DO mind that, because even though you insist a crossbow is a gun, you know it isn't.

You tried to show how a water gun is a gun, you failed.
You tried to make it appear Maryland allows guns in archery season, and I showed that was no correct.
You tried to show a crossbow was a gun, and of course again, I showed you why it wasn't.

I even went so far as to say if you can produce a negative for crossbows in archery season to bowhunting, I'd join you in being an anti-crossbow zealot, to whcih you replied you're going to be busy and won't contribute anymore to this thread.


hmmmmmmmmm

No, I set you up to look like your usual fool. Just like the old days.

Is the room spinning?? I bet you need to use an arrowgun this year. Yea right.

I guess next you are going to tell your hunting buddies, you need a handicap parking permit? Figured.

This sentence or part of one made me stop and think. Seriously Brad, do you suffer from reading comprehension issues. I am not joking.

Because I clearly posted I wouldn't be able to contribute as much. But you comprehended it as

"won't contribute anymore to this thread"

Most folks know the difference, but you took "as much" and read it as "won't". Interesting?

Maybe I am being too hard on you. Maybe you suffer from the many mental issues kids do today for learning disabilities. Its no joke. You ought to speak to a doctor maybe. Too high lead levels? Did you consume lead paint chips? Maybe it was the immunization schedule when you was a tot.
