I agree, we cannot ignore this issue...it will be back. I wish we had the time and manpower to compete with the force the x-bow manufacturers put into their effort each year. We need the NBEF/BRC/IBO/P&Y to produce a positive video for all the State Bowhunting Org's to use to combat their annual $$$$ spent by the x-bow manufacturers.
I know, Trey...there are no x-bow lobbyist registered in Austin.
I encourage you LSBA members (who no longer post on the biggest bowhunting site in Texas) to stay involved there. Great group of people there and a very large group of dedicated bowhunters. Though we may not always agree with everyone, we're all brothers of the bow and we should represent the LSBA to the best of our abilities where ever bowhunters gather...on this topic, while I won't censor my feelings, I will try to better represent in the future.
