Since it is an archery record book and I see no mention of a crossbow in the entry form I don't regard it as such .As for the 40 # comment , that is from the Alberta Regs , correct ?
What I'm trying to relay is pope and young ( you said it yourself ) defines a bow and not archery equipment. And the 40lbs applies in pope and young because the BOW has to be of legal poundage to be entered.
