I hunt with a Mathews



I'm not trying to flame but you opened this can....why don't you make your own bow/arrows? or a spear?
being negative on xbows when someone enjoys hunting with them is equivalent to me saying you shouldn't use a compound bow unless you're over 60.

I knew that's where this was going to end up...

No I don't dig my own iron ore and forge my own broad heads. I also don't find slabs of slate to make my own arrow heads. I haven't spent countless hours searching for the perfect hickory tree to whittle my own arrows using turkey feather fletchings or make my own long bow out of the braided hemp... I guess that makes me a big ole hypocrite.

....but can you tell me that sitting in a box stand and pulling a trigger with a pre-cocked crossbow looking through a scope is as difficult or holds the same standard for primative (as the season implies) as waiting for the right moment to draw back and holding an anchor point for over a minute looking through a peep sight while waiting on the right shot? To me, it's lazy, but I guess so is hunting with a compound bow.
