When CT made crossbows legal for hunting I got one.

It's far more interesting to me than a longbow. I got a long bow back in the 60's or so when the 'recurve' or whatever it was called came out and there is one in the rafters in the basement. I was never that interested in it.

I can hunt with the crossbow here and it has more range, they say, than a longbow. I can practice with it in my basement and I take it to the range with me!

And! I think it looks cool.
