There are very few new members and many of them own a crossbow also i'm sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will be the deciding factor in this . If DEC does not see much differnce in deer harvest it will happen . But if they do see a big difference they'll probably leave it the same the way it is now. This will take years of study to figure out in any case government works slow.

The DEC has been in favor of crossbow full inclusion for many years. The 5 year Deer Management plan the expires this year supports full inclusion. The crossbow season will not change until enough people engage in the process and let Albany politicians know they support classifying a crossbow as archery equipment as is done in 26 other states. There is plenty of data on crossbow vs vertical bow effectiveness. Crossbows have been allowed in Ohio for almost 40 years, and until last year, vertical bow harvests exceeded crossbow harvests.

I have one but its nothing expensive because I wasn't sure and I'm still not sure they're going to keep any crossbow season here so why spend the money i said to my self . Excalibur will probably be what i will get next . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travisrage Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Nope. Whose starting the petition to keep it the way it is. Reduce the gun season and change it to 1 buck only.
