Open season on ratboy or Peta members? Sign me up for either I guess.

Sounds like they need to reinstate a spring bear hunting season...

comparison...sorry, and I should reword the easy part b/c I have already been told that a cross bow is easier then a compound bow is a big myth. Perhaps more the pro's and con's to x-bows and compounds. Thanks...
