Default Crossbow debate

Everyone,

I have not heard anyone mention crossbows on here, in quite sometime. Maybe it is because it is a trad. bowhunting forum?

What are your thoughts on them? Agree with their use? Just tolerate them? Love them? It is mostly the old school crowd that doesn't respect them? This debate has always fascinated me, and I'd love to hear your thoughts.

big,

No crap intended, at all. Just looking for input and different perspectives. I've never got a trad. gear persons input on this. I assume it is con, but I'd like to hear why. Who knows, we might learn something!

Some don't like them and some do like them. I for one don't care for them. There not "bow" enough to me to be considered a bow. Each to there own though.

There's been a lively discussion or two on this board. I'll see if I can find one.

I hear you Steve. I am all for them, but they are not a bow. At all. It needs another name.

You mean to tell me, your not smart enough to do a search on the multiple dozens of crossbow debate threads in the bowhunting forum???

You have posted this crap on 3 forums so far. Why? Nothing ever good comes of it.
