Hold up a sec - is someone or anyone 100% sure that this is now the LAW here?!? The original link refers to a legislative session and a proposed senate bill - this one made it through?
I'd rather see a separate season for crossbows added, i.e. You can use a bow that you have to draw the whole season, then add locked bows, then add muzzleloaders, then rifles, etc...
No offense intended, but, come on, with 80-85% let-off, at 70 lbs draw weight, a person is only holding 10.5-14 lbs at full draw!
I wonder how many people who insist that crossbows are too easy or somehow unfair have actually hunted with one???
I have been through MANY of these types of discussions and, when you finally cut through the BS, it ALWAYS comes down to the fact that the "primitive" folks don't want to share "their" season with more "modern" equipment, even when that "modern" equipment has virtually identical performance.
PS: I whacked this guy last November with an Excalibur crossbow at 5 yards. Don't really think it would have mattered what type of bow I was shooting at 5 yards??
