Board,
I own a small outdoors magazine, and am working on an article for our upcoming issue. The focus of the article will be the debate over crossbows, and should they be legalized for all hunters or just for handicapped ones.
I am interested in getting everyones opinion on this, and what you personally view as the pro's and con's of using a crossbow for hunting deer. I personally use one, and think that everyone should be able to use one if they so choose. What is the difference between a crossbow vs compund vs long bow....or a brand new muzzleloader with a 209 ignition, powder pellets, and a scope vs a flintlock, with black powder, a pumpkin ball, and open sights? However....my views are only my views. I want the views of alot of different hunters, so as not to make the article one sided.
Keep in mind, that your views should be tasteful or they cannot be printed. Please include your name and where you live or hunt, so that you can be quoted accurately in the article.
The magazine is called the Delmarva Outdoor Journal, and it is free at most tackle stores along the Chesapeake Watershed. If you cannot find it in your area, drop me a bmail, and I will be happy to get you some copies.
Thanks
Rod
