quad riding with Excaliber

[varieurry]

Can you run the back woods with a crossbow on you quad, drawn, but with no bolt in it. Similar to riding with my shotgut open, with no round? roly

It's probably OK, unbolted, but for what it's worth, I would uncock my Xbow just to be safe. It's easy and quick enough to do.

It will also depend where you are. Some states/provinces will have different takes on this.

Pretty sure it needs to be encased before/after legal light, but otherwise good to go. Although to be truthful I dont like riding with mine cocked even without an arrow loaded in case something should happen but i have done it.

And a bow is not considered loaded until an arrow is nocked/inserted so you should be legal to transport that way.

Fill out your location in your profile to get a more accurate answer.

I've never transported my bow in the drawn position. Neither slung over my shoulder or on the atv.
I've seen others do it but it's not for me. These bows are just too powrful to take a chance.

Roly,

The 1st thing you should clear up is where you're from...different location have different regulations and laws..

Have mine cocked, no bolt, while driving around on the front of my quad for years with no issues yet. When we were stopped a few years back the CO's had no problem with it .

Thanks guys. Just love this forum, people who care about the sport. I'm in 45B and I'm getting my Ibex in May. I'm short so this is my choice. At 67 hoping to start a new thrill in my life and putting away my powder stuff.
roly I'll chek with the powers.
