OK Guys, School me on crossbows

[skeet]

Contrary to what all the "Bow" people say a crossbow is still just that..a bow..not any more accurate..maybe a bit easier to shoot than a recurve and still limits the yardage you can hit at to the amount of practice.. I have a crossbow with the crank..It is a noisey contraption but it do keep you in the woods ahuntin. Surprisingly the darn things have a bit of recoil just to let ya know the little things most don't or won't tell ya. Tore my Father in laws shoulder up as he was on Coumadin(rat poison) He shot a couple of deer with his even if they were not in season..he was pretty old so didn't think they'd lock him up even if they did catch him.. It was a good shootin contraption and limited to approx 40 yds for me..FIL kept it to 25-30. Louder to shoot than a recurve..marginally so to a compound. Get one..it'll keep ya huntin..The big letoff compound shooters surely shouldn't sneer at it.
