If you really want to know, ask your bear hunter friends.

I didn't think you had much to apologize about, or even delete.

Now, if you had made a series of posts suggesting that lumpy pampers would make good bear bait, now that would be a different matter. If you did that, the procedure should be - first delete, then apologize, and follow that up with harakiri.

Don't sweat it.

I would pay to see someone shoot a deer with a crossbow at 2:00 in the morning out the truck window then reload and shoot again. In Bulloch Co GA, probably happens about as often as Bradford Co FL, every other weekend.

Haven't been to a public range in going on 20 years because of the A-hats.

Crossbow is not used at night ,they use 22 mag ...but it is used at 6am in dark of mornings with headlights of truck on Bucks ...Then they go sit up road for over hr come back and trail blood ...Normal thing ..In fact all trucks will stop riding roads by 8 am I am in my stand at 6 am and I can hear traffic on dirt roads putting along until about 8 am then it stops...
So they point the truck at the deer, lean out the truck window, and shoot straight ahead?...... Really?? :roll:

YES,deer cross roads in mornings from getting last drink of water so they hunt roads with stream ..headlights stop deer in its tracks ..also headlights throw beam out to sides and light up deer..I said this would happen when Crossbows were made legal and it is....Before that they had to get out of truck and try to shoot compound bow but it did not work....Cannot shoot 22 mag as I would hear it..YES,YES, YES its being done all over pa near farms,on dirt roads,in fields ...With new in-line doe week when I look into trucks I see Crossbow cocked and in-line muzz loaded...Those hunters are hunting wayback..lol.. Some object if I say its TRUTH so I will say it is my OPINION...:roll:

Our WCO covers 2 counties now and they are stopping folks heck I was stopped 4 times last year..3 wanted to see my Small Munsterlander pup other felt my gun was loaded behind seat because i had chamber closed....He was mad he did not find a .250 sav shell in it ,oh well I do not outlaw and was eating my lunch but I am glad they are stopping folks but he arrested 2 kids for having loaded guns on tailgates which I felt he should of gave warning ticket ,cost their dads $200 ea.I am in woods about 4 days a week walking now for exercise ..Then comes archery buck /ruff grouse will be in woods 5 days a week I see a lot and KNOW a lot 52 years out there I do have OPINION.. :lol:
I just find it really hard to believe they shoot out the truck window, especially shootin in a forward direction. Maybe they are road hunting which doesn't make em any different then you admitted to be as a youth. It's really not my intention to disrespect you but I'm hearing a double standard here

It's hard to believe anybody could be so misinformed,,,, I' have noticed for years that compound bow hunters wound and lose more game than hunters that use any other weapon,,,, just an honest observation in the 3 or 4 states I hunt in anyways,,,,,

Most do not like Crossbow owners but guess what some of them own a crossbow they just do not let on they have one ...When I shoot ladies scream so I only shoot to let someone try the bow ....I did do the water buffalo hunt with my micro 335 and i shot a 1,000 pd water buff between eyes good by sucker...

Most that try bow like LOOKS of the excal bows ME too and no.1 reason I bought one and knowing I had BOO and you al for advice sound like I am down south ,you al..

Sorry but I have to ask what kind of idiot would shoot any animal in the head with an arrow, even if it was a smaller specimen????? Shows an incredible lack of responsibility or ethics and experience!

WTF did Conover steel this ID????
