[QUOTE="Freebore, post: 470381, member: 873"] Lou, Good answer. I have hunted the same with all legal weapons of my choice. But since age and treachery have taken it's toll on my young body of 60 years with 2 disc's removed 6 bolts 4 rods in my lower back, 4 pins left shoulder, 5 pins right shoulder, open heart 2 bypasses and left wrist broke twice and left knee 3x scoped! Just sold my compound this year always hoping but I moved on. Had a medical pass for the last 5 years to use a crossbow so I too am now limited to a crossbow. Longest shot of the 6 bow kills this year was a Pa buck at 31 yards. It seems that age thing keeps you from making (trying) 50-60 yard shots 'cause if it's a little off you'll have a long track and I know I like to watch them fall over. Grim Reapers or Spitfires only. Besides being retired we can afford to wait a another day for that closer shot or get 'em in rifle but then it's getting cold out. I like hunting in a T-shirt.. [/QUOTE]
