I would never say the crossbow is more accurate....sorry if I inferred that....I simply said it was probably an easier tool to master. I think if I shot side by side with a crossbow shooter, I could probably beat him in a 3d shoot, but it also took me 13 years to become proffiecient enough to do so.

I think of the crossbow the same way that I would think of the compound if I was a longbow shooter. Its a much harder tool to master, and if I was a longbow hunter, I would be looking for earlier seasons for traditional archery only....

Surely crossbow enthusiasts can agree that some tools are easier to master than others?

Again, I'm a supporter of the season. I'd just like to hear why crossbow enthusiasts are so worried about being a part of the archery season? Do they have to overlap? I really could care less if the archery season was first or the crossbow season was first.....but they're different and should be treated differently.....
