Arrow slingers speak up.

I hunted with a crossbow in Ohio and killed some of my biggest bucks with one, as well as a slew of does. It will teach you to get close, that's for sure. But the main draw for me was the four month long bow season compared with a 1 week firearms season.

I'd much rather hunt with a rifle or even a muzzleloader. I don't really appreciate making things harder than they need to be.
