Hi,
Once again I got the primitive hunt draw for which I cannot use my crossbow, which I find quite annoying. A crossbow is a very primitive weapon, and a flintlock buddy of mine has said that crossbow locks have been found in China dating from 650 BC.
I have the permit, and it's only a tad faster than my husband's new Hoyt bow. I now have to go out and buy a muzzle loader that I may use maybe 2 times in my life, whereas I use my crossbow a lot more, both in bow and rifle season.
Why is it not considered a primitive weapon? Not looking for the usual smart4$$ comments. Guys are allowed to bring bows, flintlocks, and muzzle loaders which are a lot less primitive than my little crossbow...sigh...
I may want to talk to the government about why it isn't considered a primitive weapon, I mean c'mon now. Do they think Wainwright will be overun with crossbow users? I highly doubt it, there are so few of us disabled hunters that have this permit to begin with
