Crossbow hunting in no way shape or form compares with rifle hunting, totally stupidity.
Dude,
I do not want to start this arguement again. But, how in the world can you say that.
Scope - Yes, just about every hi powered rifle has one.
Trigger - Yes, every rifle has one.
Safety - Yes, every rifle has one.
Gun Stock Yes, every rifle has one.
Precocked - Yes, very similar to a preloaded round.
Shoulder fired - Yes, unless you are the Rifleman from the old westerns, we all shoulder fire our rifles.
I think each of these compares in SOME WAY to a rifle. And please understand I am not against crossbows at all anymore. They are here and here to stay. But, let's be honest when we refer to them. I have several friends that hunt with crossbows and I am glad to share the woods with them.
