I don't know if I'd rather have a crossbow over a compound bow.   My problem with crossbows is you loose 90% of the arrows you shoot.

[Pacer]

what do you mean, lose 90% of your bolts?

I have only lost 3%

Damaged or end up shooting under the grass.   The target I used wasn't very good at stopping them, and the bolts disappeared under the grass.   What velocity do most crossbow bolts shoot at?

Thanks for posting that.  I've always wanted to mess with a crossbow.

I got an email this afternoon from Greg Isabella, Vice-President of the PGC, that this measure passed.

Yes Pa and NJ both allow crossbows now...
