I agree whole heartedly! The reason most people I know of hunt with compound bows is that they can extend out the hunting season with them. They dont really care to, per say, bow hunt. But to just get more season in and kill a deer.  God those things are more gun than bow and should be banned as being guns durring the bow hunting season. Just think how few of the yahoos would be in the woods if "Bow Season" was actually a bow season!!!

while i agree very much with many of the thoughts expressed here, i need to say "don't hurt yourselves by justifying weapons are too advanced for hunting within a certain season".  anti's would love to ban compounds from bow season.  don't let them think they have hunters support. 
now i know what you are saying, don't get me wrong.  when i am hefting my flinlock and someone says i muzzleload too, while holding an inline with a scope i get very agitated.  the thing is this, we all need to support anyone who wants to hunt, no matter what they are hunting with (within reason)  -  i hunted with a compound for many moons, then went to recurve, and finally to my own crafted wood bow.  i enjoyed the transition, and the encouragement from fellas like you to switch.  i am doing my damndest to convert others. 
my point is, don't hate on others because you think you are right, they may be incapable of the skill and coordination it takes to shoot barebow.  then we would have more anti's saying bows aren't good enough to take game again.   ;)

Keith is right, everybody has to stick together.Doesn't mean you have to agree.I hunt everything,every season.And we have alot and long one in Fla.I have about as many guns as I do bows and a proud member of NRA.All you can do is educate and stick together.

Beleg813:
Agreed. I would prefer to hunt with the traditional weapons, but hunting in general is a great thing regardless of the weapon of choice. I was just pointing out that, in my opinion, why bother with all the technological advances in archery when you can just take a small step further and hunt with a high-powered rifle/scope combo? That's just my opinion, though.

D. Tiller:
Yep! New stuff on the market is just there to put money in someone elses pocket and not your own.
