And how many have you killed this year using anything?
Sorry Barney Boy but 18,000,000 people in the U.S. hunt with bows and 5,500,000 of them hunt with crossbows.
By that measure we have 1/3 the population of GB hunting with bows. We might have more people hunting with crossbows than all the people in GB that have hunting licenses totaled, I can not find the figures for GB licenses.
I hunt with a re-curve and a longbow as well as the Jaguar 175 that is being discussed.
Fact is, most shots are well inside crossbow range no matter if the hunter is using a spit-wad or a 7.62.
