Trial153 Posted April 20, 2021 Author Share Posted April 20, 2021 If they were crossbow advocates then I wouldn’t be a member. I wouldn’t Expect an archery hunting organization to advocate against archery.I’ll be sure to drop a few more donations so we can keep up the hard work 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mowin Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 They lost me and several of my friends because of their idioc stance on crossbows. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 I was a member to gave it up even before the crossbow thing. They have done as much harm as good for bow hunting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foggy Mountain Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Let me see it’s ok to be a member of the crossgun coalition supporting crossgun but you support bows and bow hunting you’re somehow a terrible guy? Ridiculous and hypercritical. Sounds exactly the way the world wants you to be, if you “don’t agree with me” you’re a terrible underhanded guy. Nonsense. Keep fighting boys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep fighting boys. i'm not really out to change anyone's mind because the writing is on the wall. i don't even have a xbow, but i haven't been into a single archery shop throughout the country that didn't sell crossbows. if i want to have a xbow worked on i wouldn't go to a big box store or a gun shop. i'd go to an archery shop to get it repaired or tuned up. what's more important is i don't see a chance in hell my daughter will be able to pull back a vertical bow that she could confidently kill deer with once she turns legal bowhunting age of 12 yrs old. a crossbow however could easily get her into bowhunting. when i get to old to draw a trad bow or compound i'll kill deer in archery season with a xbow until the day i die calling myself a bowhunter. those are the reasons NYBH will continue to die a slow miserable death, despite I don't necessarily wish it any ill will. 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolc123 Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 I wonder if it will be mostly cupcakes (compound only bowhunters who oppose the crossbow) at the banquet. At least we know what they are having for dessert. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coonhunter Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Good to hear you had a nice turn out for the banquet. It is always nice to have a lot of participation in any group or club you are a member of. Crossbows in bow season is nothing I am going to fight over because I honestly don't care. If you guys feel strong enough about it, be my guests. The weapons are all just tools to me, and the more people that hunt, the better it is for the sport of hunting. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Difference is because you want someone else’s season. Fight to take over firearm season. Why exactly do you want so badly to make things easier for you crossgun folks? They all wanna call themselves bowhunters. Earn the title and make things harder than need be. Crossgun guys will never get that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 Fantastic turn out at the Banquet. Full house. Might be hard to understand for some. While I don't have good things to say about their stance on crossbows I'm glad it was a good turn out. I'm of the opinion that when crossbow use gets expanded I'm sure it won't be protesting will die after full inclusion. Same as when people went from trad bows to compounds. Having another group advocating for hunting is only a good thing though.Sent from my SM-G781V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A crossgun is def a gun. Has much more in common w that than a bow. Just because the projectile is a broad head doesn’t matter. I’ll actually take the redneck thing as a compliment. Better being called that than lots of stuff. I don’t find it inflammatory in the least. Keep fighting boys 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
