DC has an open invitation to come up and hunt with me anytime he wants to. We got a few good ones running around up here too!;) I am working on lease that's within a couple of miles of the White River but a lot farther north than the refuge.

What substantiation do you have that crossbow archers are going to be unethical? Thirty years in Ohio has not confirmed your slander right. What is wrong is a person like you assuming and jumping to conclusions others based on what bow they use. The majority of the people argue of some sort of advantage over other bows, but this hasn't shown on the most recent hunting harvest rates, if truth be told they’re essentially a little lower in spite of "gun like" attributes that many maintain.

Why is it that the first post reads "tell me one thing bad about crossbow" which requires an opinioned answer. Then when you recieve an answer that is opiniated you want facts or stats. Just accept that is other peoples views on the subject, appreciate the different aspects of the answers and press on. If someone opinion is not the same as yours, there not wrong it is just there morals, thoughts, or just how they feel about the question that was asked. Alomst every respond here is an opinion. Damn people go do somthing like Scouting or Turkey hunt, take someone fishing have a Beer:).

Here .......... a sampling of Arkansas bucks (you'll have to share the woods with crossbow hunters, but you won't see any, and with bucks like this, I think its worth the effort, don't you ? :D )

Thanks Data, I've already inquired about certain parts of your state with another anonymous board member :D

I didn't say I was so biased towards xbows that I wouldn't share "your" woods with them

I help a lot of kids in to bow hunting.Give bows away,help them learn to hoot,and take them hunting every year.From what I have under stood becouse I do not think xbows are not bows I do not want to push bow hunting.I think every one that has some thing to gain from the xbow thing.

I heard all this crap.I just want to help,I just like to talk crap,look up the definion.

But not one sole has said a real reasion why they are pushing it.If there is no real reasions, Than why?


I have hade people trist what I have typed, LIE about what I have typed,and just pick out the little peaces they want to push. [BUT AT LEAST THEY DID NOT SAY HOW BAD MY SPELLING IS} for this I say good to talk about the subject and not how some one spells.[ TY]

I do not thry to pick any one apart or call names. I just posted as I saw it. My uncle kills WAY more deer becouse of the xbow.I know this becouse he can not hunt,he was lucky to kill 1 deer a year with a bow.And now he kills many many deer with an xbow.HE SHOOTS TO FAR. HE WILL SHOOT WELL OVER %) YARDS WITH THE XBOW. He would never shoot 30 yards with the bow.becouse he can now put an X on it he thinks he can shoot 3 timeswith the xbow than as far as he could with the compound.I do not beleave he is alone on this.

Okay you paranoid man .......... whats in it for YOU to keep crossbows out ?? I mean, using your reasoning there must be something to gain for you to fight so hard against it, right ?

I've given you my reason - the argument makes NO SENSE to have compounds but not crossbows. No sense at all.
