2) Why not go back to primative hunt by Anonymous Citizen on August 2, 2008
You hunt with a old recurve and wood shaft arrows, correct? Now if you are serious about dedication to primative hunting then get real and throw that expense compound bow out. Because many of the compound bows available today are not far off from the same technology as the crossbows use. You have lighted sights and scopes and major let off. Is that primative? This no crossbow thing is like our 'shotgun' zones. When you get down to the nitty-gritty, it makes now sense. (except to the 'brain deads' that think primative is a combound bow set at 70 lbs with a 85% let off and lighted scope).

3) crossbow hunting by Anonymous Citizen on February 26, 2008
im 54 yrs old. i don't see where allowing anybody to use a crossbow in our state hurts any group. i myshelf would love to use one,i no longer can see pins on my bow very well,or hold steady.age should be no factor in its use.we should be able to use it during archery season not just rifle.many people that cant shoot a bow would be able to hunt.bringing more people in to injoy the outdoors or well lose it.
