How do you know if you've never done it? How much more movement does it take to draw a bow and aim in comparison to raising a crossbow and aiming it? Not much! Granted there is more effort involved in drawing the bow, I'll give you that, but movement.....?
A wild assumption?

Holding a bow at full draw since your your butt hits the treestand seat is impossible.

A deer at 20 yards broadside, calm, with a rifle or crossbow raised is a dead
deer. Same situation with just your release clipped on your string, the outcome can seriously vary.

Im not going to bother with spot n stalk mulies.

Guys that spend enough time in the tree, and that's what this comes down to. know how many more deer they could have killed if they were already drawn.

Having to draw and being drawn from dark to dark is what this is about.

My assumptions are far from wild, closer compared to first hand experience.
