Both the organizations you mentioned must have an agenda or interest..or they wouldn't exist. The only thing I am stating is that the reason to have the bow or gun or muzzleloader seasons is to hunt. Who cares about semantics other than people with an axe to grind. Since I like recurve bows I feel that any compound is taking advantage of the game or whatever? No! I hunted with a caplock with a roundball...do I think using an inline is unfair? No! I really don't care...except for the fact that I think that people who whine and argue that someone using what they don't like is unfair. Unfair to whom..them or the game they hunt? The selfsame arguing and whining is divisive to the sport and the people who hunt. Oh and by the way...both the groups you mentioned are backed and funded in some greater or lesser degree by a group who defineitely has an agenda.. Manufacturers of archery equipment and others. I am sure the groups do some very good work in promoting bowhunting and safety...but they still have some agenda as do the NRA and the NMLRA...two other groups that do an awful lot for sportmen and hunting. In fact I feel that except for the NRA, the 2nd amendment may have been destroyed long ago. Also it seems since the middle ages the crossbow has been looked down on by many as it was a weapon of war that wasn't a yeoman's or gentleman's weapon. Somewhat in the same manner snipers have been looked down upon except in cases of necessity such as WWII and Vietnam
