They may have used them. Hell, I've used a guitar. Doesn't mean I should start a band.

It's a very good analogy. The amount of skill and time it takes to shoot a crossbow and a compound are much closer than a traditional guy and a compound


This is a worse troll than my tattoo thread.

I guess it doesn't bother me because I don't hunt public land. I didn't realize it was such an issue.

All this debating and infighting means hunting season is just around the corner!

I'm certainly not trolling. You compound guys are giving yourselves too much credit.

Everyone here is complaining about a bow that is more technologically advanced and easier to use than the one they use...just like compounds are more technologically advanced and easier to use than the ones before them.

The difference is that people back then were probably just happy to have a better tool to harvest game. These days, people like to whine and complain because of a few more hunters in the woods.

"Season of hate"...that about sums it up.


I had no idea they have the capabilities they do...400fps, that's smoking.

You've missed every point made in this thread. It's not like there is a continuum from stick to compound to cross. Cross is a totally different thing.

It's not that there are more. It's that they ignored this season before crossbows were made legal. The early seasons was for bowhunters. Many of us do not ever gun hunt. All crossbow hunters gun hunt. So, those guys are now getting Oct. 1 to Jan. 31.

A cardiologist, brain surgeon and nuclear physicist bought crossbows. Didn't really see the big deal in it. 18 months later:

How big is your corn feeder? What about your box stand? You listen to Luke Bryan yet today? What about them white frame Costas? You got some Ultra in your Yeti in the back of your F-150 Jacked up in the driveway?
