now it looks like i need to buy a recurve if i am not allowed to use my compound. is that fair on a fixed in come can't drive. got to buy a different bow to hunti don't have a hand cannon to use but you should not used firearms during archery season, just use a 100 yard acurate crossbow. instead can we get a concealed carry permit for a crossbow? Why would you not be allowed to use your compond?

It's simple. If you want the extra hunting time get a bow, crossbow, spear, pistol, slingshot, rock or what ever and take advantage of the special seasons. If not don't sit around and whine about those of us that do. This argument makes absolutely no sense at all. best post in the whole damn thread. Absolutely!

Do you guys really think the people at DCNR should be given free reign to set hunting seasons for any reason they choose? What if a new administration comes in that ain't bow friendly. Will you be good if they ban using bows during gun season, or will you "whine" about it like you did when crossbows were allowed in "your" season or when they threaten to shorten "your" days due to a February season?

You get roughly 100 days a year to kill deer. Be it with a bow, rifle, slingshot or your bare hands. WTF is there to complain about?
If you’re a common sense person, you probably don’t feel you have a home in this world right now. If you’re a Christian, you know you were never meant to.

Don't copy and paste bullschit, I want to know WHAT IS CHAPPING YOUR ASS. What is your little hunting utopia that you so eagerly pursue?

From another thread: It's real simple, but you still won't like it because you don't understand it enough to respect it:
Constitution of Alabama 1901
and
Code of Alabama 1975
Title 9
If you don't know what I'm talking about, try reading them sometimes.

Just wait until the CAB declares .35 caliber and up air guns as legal instruments of take during the New Archery & Special Weapons Season.
Then this thread will really achieve "lift-off" from unintended chapstick ignition!

The *only* problem I have with compound bows is that we've probably had 20 times more deer injured and lost with them than with guns on our club. I've talked to several people with similar stories. A lot less misses, but a lot more deer running away, never to be seen again with a arrow in them rather than an bullet. I don't know if it's because people are taking longer shots than the should with the compound, less concentration on making a good shot, older/younger (than the normal gunhunting crowd) people getting out there with compounds, or what...but it's a fact on our club. There fixed it for ya. Funny how that was so easy to turn around on ya.

The CAB tried to ram the crossbow issue down our throats without popular hunter support
I respectfully disagree. Just because BHA was very vocally against that issue does not mean there wasn't a huge amount of support from hunters across this state. I am still waiting on all those deer killed at 80 yards and the big increase in night hunting caused by legalizing crossbows. It did allow more women and children to participate in this great sport and that alone is good enough for me to support it. I killed my first deer via the crossbow last season and I can tell you that IMHO they are FAR LESS lethal than a real good compound bow in the hands of a good shooter.

I was a working GW then, in contact daily with hunters, esp bowhunters. In the years before the CAB legalized crossbows I had not one hunter ever propose to allow crossbows to be a legal bow season weapon. That was a damn lie told by the CAB and commish at the time. I have no issues with crossbows in bow season, just the way the CAB lied and shoved crossbows down our throats at the time.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....
