Since texas passed the crossbows law
I was wondering if your outfit was going to let these weapons
Be used on your bow only hunting places ?
Not trying to start any thing just was wondering if your
places was going to let them be used

I will let them use them if they are young (16 and under) or disabled

Only if they have a disability. I don't like them at all and that's just my 2 cents.

I will welcome them, but I want to see the person shoot it and see for myself that it is effective. If they are as accurate as a bow, shouldn't be a problem. In fact I think they will be quite effective from a shoot - through pop up, or ghillie suit.

We dont have a problem with them and our hunters use them all the time. Just like any other tool you have to be able to use it to be effective.

The last 2 years I've had 3 guys hunt deer with them. 2 bucks we didn't find and 1 we did. Good have just been arrow placement but one of the hits was on video and that deer should have died. Does anyone know about the FPS and kinetic energy or any of that stuff compared between the crossbow and the regular bows? Thanks
