You will have to certify every year with and MD or DO only. No scopes or red dots and only champ permit holders can use a device to hold up the crossbow No magnifying scopes. 1x is still allowed.

Coues247 Report post Posted September 6 Wheww. . I can sleep better tonight knowing those paralyzed CHAMP hunters can't put a magnifying scope on their crossbow. At least they can use a bipod though since they are missing an arm too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

creed Report post Posted September 6 Elitism and politics. Penalize those that are already penalized. Most archery mule deer hunts will be a draw within the next 5-7 years with or without banning crossbows. Hopefully sooner than later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yet here they bash them for un fair advantage! I spent 10 days in unit 27 last year helping on a champ hunt . Aj has cerebral palsy and other issues. That kid didn't have any advantage . We pushed him over a mile in only to find the elk we were watching was gone . Go on a champ hunt or disability challenged hunt and see what it takes . Lots of people here read the request for help on Aj's hunt but just passed it up . You get a army of people for sheep and sometimes elk but crickets for a disability challenged hunt . It's a shame that hunters have seemingly lost any sense of helping those who truly needed help but can help those who are more than capable. Go help on a champ hunt then make a comment!! It will definitely change your views and give you a realistic view. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am FOR crossbows and champ hunts, I go on one every year with my brother so yeah I can comment, I was saying that they should be more worried about a long range muzzle loader than a crossbow , maybe you read my comment wrong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But the muzzleloader stuff is what utah and new mexico implemented with out any clue that fixed 1 power scopes are impossible to find and then are changing the regs again to no scopes . The advantages go to the rifle hunters that cry about unfair advantages for everyone else . More rounds in the gun ,more magnification, and more yds .

jdown Report post Posted September 6 All for champ hunts and xbow - just for those that need it vs anyone pos that has a “sore shoulder”. Nothing wrong with regulation to keep it fair from those that abuse the intent. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
