MB You are so right

It's all about the people(bowhunters etc) wanting the woods to themselves. They just don't want to admit that some of the compounds they shoot are right up there with crossbows. They have an elitist agenda and don't care about anything or anyone else. A crossbow is just what the name implies..a type of bow... No matter what the NBEF or any other archery group may say. They have no more range than a compound or recurve...maybe less in fact and they are much slower to shoot...with way too much movement to not scare even an unalerted deer. In fact in the hands of a good archer the compound or recurve may even be more accurate. I do remember the uproar...yes there was one even though there were not anywhere near as many bowhunters...when the compound came on the scene. They were not considered legal in some states for a while. Sheesh...They shouldn't be lumped in with muzzleloaders either. Not even close to the efficiency of even a flinter
