Maybe ABA could have a division, and therefore membership, for crossbow folks too. Then guys like me wouldn't feel like outcasts from the string-propelled-pointy-stick-with-fletching-on-the-other-end crowd so much

Think about it, it would add strength and numbers and voices to items of mutual concern. It could be called the ABCBA - the Alberta Bowhunters and CrossBow Association

With the ABA crowd I'm a welcome prospect - 'cause I have used and hunted with a recurve - a bow that really bows when ya draw it back!. Those 'bows' that don't bow and have training wheels just aren't for me. I like the real thing . I hunted with a real bow long before them training wheel thingys came out. I hear everybody that uses them have sights - some even have scopes now! And triggers - yup, triggers! Who'd have ever thought those things would be called 'bows'

But on the other hand, because I like crossbows too, I'm an evil pariah, maybe worse

On second thought - about my good idea above - it would never work. The ABA would make us crossbow folk meet in the outhouse - but only after we muck it out
