Sorry to say "the no change in crossbow hunting in Wisc. " is not set in stone . Just read it in the OUTDOOR News Wisc.

From what I have read N.R.B Chairman Fred Prehn said because of the out cry of pro crossbow users of what was said in Jan. They will hit the "pause button" and not make any changes this year . BUT you are right it may not last forever . We have to keep the pressure on . Even if it's one year at a time.

This is what I read " To be clear, there are no changes on big game season at this time." we can only hope it stays the same

the diehard vertical compound bow guys here in rhode island dont like the crossbow. they seam to forget years back they were hated by
the recurve guys. some would except the crossbow if a hunter was handy caped. from what being preached over in ct there been 10s of thousands of deer killed with crossbows so much theres less deer. less deer in ri since the crossbow. Vermont purpose's in 2020 to let all hunters use crossbows right now its over 50 years of age. seams they want to kill more doe and spikes. so I guess crossbows are a nasty
weapon to some :eusa-violin:

I wish they could see just what they are doing to hunting as a whole if all hunters do not stick together there will be no hunting in the future . they are just giving the antis some thing to feed on . I say if a person wants to hunt with a crossbow gun or a long bow let them . we are in this together . JMO

This is good news. Stay vigil the pressure is growing to limit crossbow hunting. Wisconsin crossbow hunters make your feeling heard at the spring DNR spring meetings. For those that cannot attend, this is the first year you can vote on line regarding proposals.
