So you think this compares to a compound http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5nVSfv0Rlg
I don't think so!
I don't think so!
The TAC 15 and Stryker are but two crossbows on the planet that I know of that will reach those speeds. Most "super" crossbows top out at 350 - 360 fps. and the vast majority of crossbows on the market top out at less than 325.
How many of those "slob hunters" are going to be able to afford a $1600 crossbow?
BTW, feel free to answer and debunk the following.
1. Do they or do they not meet every definition of archery equipment? Please research and make me a liar.
2. Are crossbows, having their origins some 2400 years ago, primitive weapons? Remember that compounds are primitive weapons in most states that have an actual "primitive weapons" season.
3. Are your traditions my traditions and are my traditions your traditions? I hope not.
4. Are hunter numbers declining across the country?

Weren't you just complaining about just the opposite on a previous post about Tenpoint crossbows? Hi pot, my name is kettle.
So what speed did it hit?

No, I wouldn't quit hunting and I doubt many would but there will definitely be some.
If every state, or even just a few states, went to an anything goes season and the population is forced to make the decision to use a bow or rifle in an anything goes season I bet most hunters would opt to use their rifles for the obvious reasons.
If people aren't spending money on archery equipment the archery stores aren't making money and aren't paying taxes.
If the stores aren't selling it they will down size to maintain a profit and may eventually close up shop all together.
If stores close up shop people become unemployed and the state will pay unemployment benefits. This is called an expense.

If the stores aren't selling it then the manufacturers aren't manufacturing it. Less taxes paid to neighboring states.
The offsetting of the additional gun hunters (most are already gun hunting any way) that you are going to argue, that will be buying more guns and ammo won't be enough to keep many of the family owned archery shops in business.
I didn't know that you were so anti-capitalist and so pro-unemployed.

strange. Do you really want me to go back through your posts and start pointing out your many many spelling and punctuation errors?

What really cracks me up about all your idiotic posts, is the word "fact". It gives me a laugh like you wouldn't believe. You still don't get it. There is no facts. All these articles this guy posted are opinions. Picking out and choosing data that suits your needs doesn't fly with someone like me who has experience that says different. I think it would be best you keep standing behind the counter where your at waiting on customers asking, "sir, can I help you". Perfect.
I simply want you to debunk what I posted above with facts to back it up.. If you can then do so if you can't then you may as well be irrelevant.
1. Do they or do they not meet every definition of archery equipment? Please post something, other than your opinion, that says different.
2. Are crossbows, having their origins some 2400 years ago, primitive weapons? Remember that compounds are primitive weapons in most states that have an actual "primitive weapons" season.
3. Are your traditions my traditions and are my traditions your traditions? I hope not.
4. Are hunter numbers declining across the country or not?

I didn't quote super arrowguns like the PSE and stryker. Those are super arrowguns. Do you actually know anything???
240fps. I love pulling out my chronos, everybody with super compounds all seem glum after that. But I am sure you believe numbers the mfg tell ya. Its your nature. Good boy.
Might pull in some numbers.
I wouldn't
wow, that sounds like the blama stimulus plan. How did that work out? You are finding out so much about yourself on this thread.
So we need to make this big beaurcracy basically getting people to buys all this sports gear? And it gets bigger and bigger, needing management, needing studies. I wonder why I have to pay over 40K in taxes.
I am not anti-capitialist, but what you just decribed is not a capitalist free market system. More goverment control and taxes.
If you want too, I say go for it. Just wanted to know what you meant. Thanks, that was fun.

What cracks me up is that you refuse to address anything relevant to the discussion through out this entire thread. Your entire argument is based on pure emotion and tradition.

No, go back to social studies. Making a goverment run beaurcracy that puts out seasons so tax payers have to purchase un-needed items to hold up your store and other businesses is not a free market system.
Uh, duh, I have been explaining this the whole time. Wake up
