You honestly believe that including xguns in the archery season will increase the net number of hunters in this province??? Your wrong, it will just shift the same numbers.

Stereotyping me one way, would stereotype you the other way then, wouldn't you think.? Cause that's how a lot of people perceive you on here.

Each time I ran into a xgun in the field , I had to make a phone to to F&W to have someone charged ... 3 for 3..... But I have hunted with a guy who used a xgun...he only had 3 fingers and on his only arm.

Each interest association in Alberta , is build on the basis of taking care of their own interest.... I could be wrong, but fnaws (for sheep) doesn't really have much to do with the antelope.... Each group is formed with their own specific and specialized topic and agenda at hand..... Can't say I begrudge any of them for that.

It's funny how we don't see crossbows being used in the general seasons where they are permitted.
I have yet to see 1 person with a crossbow during the general seasons , however I have seen many bowhunters with Traditional bows, and compounds hunting in the general seasons.
How many pro crossbow posters are involved in the guiding industry, where allowing crossbows would increase revenue for them? and how many are involved in the Crossbow industry where stirring the pot with these threads might be good for business?

FYI pete, I hunted almost the entire general season with my crossbow.
