I have never shot a crossbow but according to a friend his raven is just like a rifle, easy to sight in good to 100 yds with minimal effort etc, shoot it from the shoulder, look through a scope etc.

By defintition, a bow is defined as powered soley by the Archer's pull. I don't have a problem with cross bow threads, since they are included in archery season.

perchjerker Freak of Nature Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 31,681 Slidell, La	Not everyone Bama, some folks for medical reasons can no longer draw their bow. I wish those people all the luck in the world. What I don't care for is those not willing to devote the time and effort to learn to bow hunt. For the record I'm one that due to radiation and chemo I can no longer draw my Mathews at 70 pounds, I can't even draw more than 25lbs lefthanded. Not willing to give up, I'm trying to teach mytself to change hands and hunt right handed. Hopefully, by next season I'll be able to. Then I'm going try something impossible and help SuperSpike get his first kill! Thomas Jefferson. The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

I enjoy hunting with a bow though. Wouldn't go to a xbow until I physically couldnt draw a compound anymore.
