  1. New to the site, never realized it was here! Anyways, I have been hunting in NY for 37 years, Bow hunting since I was 14. I never ever thought I would see a day that hunters, who fight for the constitutional rights of all and are so strongly united as brothers would attack the rights and choices of other hunters. This is really a sad time for Sportsmen and it personally sadens me to see such behavior!! It's not about being old, it's not about being handicapped, it's about being an American and free to choose his or her own respected hunting style. I hunt both and enjoy both. I have seen statements from people saying a crossbow is not a bow...you do not need to practice...it is easier than vertical bow hunting. First off, if it does not shoot a bullet and go bang! it is not a gun, if its not a bow...what is it? a short arrow tosser!, and its just silly to say you do need to practice, I know both vertical bow hunters and crossbow hunters, the crossbow hunters have them beat badly in practice hours, try buying a crossbow and hitting the woods without a good deal of practice and see how many injuries you come back with and hopefully you do not cause a fatal injury to yourself or another, thats like saying you should not practice with a gun either! Last, crossbows are easier to score with, well you still have to be a good hunter, you still need to practice and you still need to put in the time...just like a vertical bow, just like a firearm! I can not even believe I am seeing this argument between Sportsmen that are supposed to be united instead of pursuing their own agendas and personal likes! Very sad!!
