Why are crossbows for pussies?

[Mergie Master]

Grab yourself a 70# recurve and do this:

I say your a pussy if your not chopping down a tree and making your own bow and arrows with all natural materials. So a 1200 dollar mathews bow is no more MANLY than a crossbow. Who gives a crap what you shoot. And not to mention not everybody gets to walk out the door on august 15th with a 300 win mag and sit over a 500 acre soybean field.

[Jozie & Me]

if you kill deer with anything other than a ball-peen hammer and a yellow handle case knife you are a pussy.

for ducks you have to leave the case knife at home.

There's so much anger.

Grown men know use gunpowder and optics to kill deer
Than thyey debate the best powder and bullets to use. At this point it don't matter.

i think there is room for a debate about whether a crossbow should be considered a primitive weapon in many states.

but you guys love the "if its within the law, I'm gonna run with it" philosophy a lot.

if the new technology "muzzle loader" is considered primitive then a crossbow is a shoe in.

Dressing - okay
Crossdressing - not okay
Bow - okay
Crossbow - not okay

That really is the heart of the whole thing. If they came out with a blow gun season and some guy went out there with a modified nail gun, we'd call him a pussy too.

Surely you don't mean that we should have ethics that differ from our elected officials.

The French used crossbows,the English used the long bow. the end

[Sportin' Woodies]

Crossbow hunters put bumpers in their bowling alley and ride three wheel Hondas instead of Harleys

[Arrowman]

The only thing that pisses me off is when someone kills a deer with a crossbow and when you ask them what they killed it with and they say "bow".

[Catdaddy]

Compound Bow hunting is the ultimate when it comes to deer hunting.

There are a very few that unsuccessfully attempt to take the sport to another level with long bows and traditional bows.They use rad terms like....sharks, tiger sharks, and 175 gr.



In the end we just accept them as little brothers that have lost their way. They eat alot of gravy and rice........and I mean alot of rice.

To be clear I did not say "if its within the law, I'm gonna run with it"
I said "Hunt with what you want and how you want to as long as it is legal."

To further explain, I just don't think it is worth going around and saying someone is a lesser person if they don't hunt the same way as you. If there is an unethical law, I will certainly contact my representative. I have done that. I just am not going to sit on a high horse and criticize someone because they do not hunt in the most difficult way available to them legally. We are in a day and age when uninvested people can easily criticize hunting and quickly sway public opinion. Cecil the lion and the speared bear are two recent cases. When I say I stand behind legal hunting I am not saying I unaware of ethical.

For reference purposes I have never hunted with a crossbow. I shot one deer with a bow. I suck at bow hunting.

If you have willingly owned a Boykin, fired a cross bow, or spoken to a midget then you have seen a dick up close....... Like very close. Like feel the heat off of it.

Growth = competition = bad

Here Here!!

[murraywader]

Fuck all that noise. I have a hatchet and a damn brick. I'll hurl either one and kill like a fucking caveman. Beat my chest afterwards and slide my old lady some fireside meat.

Pussy..

I just scare em to death.

[buckpro]

To each its own, just don't call it a bow kill.

This argument is about like a guy being cussed for killing a billfish for fun, by someone who killed one in a tournament a week ago.

[Duck cutter]

As long it is legal I don't have a problem with it.

bickering among hunters does nothing but hurt the sport
