MN DNR proposed rules to allow crossbow in archey season

[Holm-Made]

If cross bows/guns become legal and more wide spread the Xbow companies will start putting more into their development making them more and more effecient.  Who's going to define what a crossbow is then?  They will be come even more firearm like then they are now.

Perhaps you've seen the photo of the crossbow on the ar platform?  I can't give a quick link but it shouldn't be too hard to find.

Gordy,
When you are in town stop in the office. We are north of town off hwy 38.

Hey Joe, would love to stop by and meet ya ... but.. not sure what office you're talking about ! My apologies for not being too active here !
Are you in the tattoo shop next to Mckinney or maybe a CO in Marcell ? 

Just passed through Monday afternoon....again, finally caught a real fish !...after season  :\   Looking for work and have a few former clients in GR so hope to not only make it up to moms place more often but maybe be doing business in GR again.

What's your vocation/location ?

[Holm-Made]

Joe works for the MN Deer Hunter's Assn.  Their office is located right accross from the Shooting Sports Education Center, five miles north of GR on HWY 38.  Chad

however i dont like the idea for me many reasons like what has been mentioned by some already

not to mention,if ya have to pull a trigger its not realy bowhunting

if ya have to pull a trigger its not really bowhunting

Well said Sailor, that pretty much sums it up for me.

Chad you got a way to forward this whole post to the DNR to show how this group doesn't support their proposal? I have many disagreements with the DNR but some reach further into Washington DC and others have to deal with that silly group of wackos called PETA (another dirty four letter word).

Great words everyone, couldn't agree more!! The Pope and Young club sent out emails to all of their Mn members regarding this proposal. I am a member so I got the email from them. In their email they had the link to the online survey. I took the online survey a few months back and gave the Mn DNR my take on the subject. I hope like hell this doesn't go through but I'm thinking that's wishful thinking. It's all about money If you ask me and just a way In for the xgun companies.
