That's great to hear but I am surprised at the narrow margin of victory...goes to show you how important it is to go out and vote and make your voice heard

Congratulations. We here in Canada are just now signing petitions to stop the Liberal government from banning legally owned and registered firearms.

Though I'm a non resident. Hunting the N.Woods past 8 yrs, I feel free to say. I helped vote to keep things the way they are now.
I love my compound hunting here in Az, as we have no real crossbow seasons. Other than used during seasons other than archery.

Most who draw a rifle or muzzleloader tag , use those.

Be my freinds and myself use crossbows during the ham javelina hunts.
Handgun Archey Muzzy tags.

Only time I get to use my exomax here .

HELL YES!!

This is the second year in a row that WI hunters/etc voting in the Spring DNR/Conservation Congress Meetings have voted to uphold cross bow hunting rights and seasons staying the same as vertical bows.

This is the 3rd or 4th time the anti-crossbow proposals have been put down in WI.

I hope it's the end of attacks on crossbows by the WBA and their agents in WI, but I doubt it.
