I hope they do pass the bill for cross bows. MY dad loves hunting he has nerve damage in his shoulder. He can't lift a compound bow to shoot it.

So how will he lift a crossbow,most are heavier then compounds?

I see no problem enabling a truely disabled person the use of a crossbow. As long as they can't draw, hold and shoot a compound let them use a crossbow and enjoy the time afield. However, I strongly oppose the use of crossbows for the able bodied that just want an easy way into archery season.

I made a brace for his shot gun. I'll make 1 for his cross bow.

I don't believe they should be allowed for able-bodied folks in the normal archery season. I have no problem with disabled folks using them at any time, or able bodied folks using them during the firearms season.

I know a guy that killed a doe last season with a crossbow....man did it do some damage.

Guy isn't handicaped or anything.....just overweight. Shot the damn deer from 65yds away.

why would you even mention anything about what you saw when you go hunting? you don't know who reads these post, i.e. ME! or anyone else. Just proves how immature you are!
