I couldn't do it. I don't live there so it's not for me to say.

My sister-n-law's family has land at Lake George . . .I'd like to hunt there one day, perfer to use the crossbow!

The poll didn't say . . .NY'ers only . . .

were all sportsman and NY is losing hunters, crossbows will be a big positive and we have a vert bow outfit that calls themselves the NY bowhunters inc that feels it's OK for them to say that we can not use crossbows...and that handicapped hunters should not have the option to use them either..

Not looking for an argument. It's dishonest to skew results so I won't do it. The poll became meaningless when non-residents started to insert their opinions. Delete your cookies and vote several times if you like but there is no value in this poll.

How is voting dishonest for non-residents? They didn't ask for residents only, right? The state of NY offers licenses to non-residents, right? The state of NY operates as a member of the 50 states and accepts Federal Funds(our tax money). I don't see an issue.

The number 1 complaint that the anti-crossbow group has is "the outsiders forcing crossbows on them". I got news, we are all Americans . . .ooooops, OK . . .I see, they are talking about the Canadians. :roll:

Pretty weak arguement.

you don't wanna vote fine but your incorrect, NY offers none resident hunting licenses and by adding crossbows to the archery season here it will bring additional none resident hunters to our state, nothing dishonest about it, plain and simple!!!!

99% of my deer hunting was done in the Seneca Falls area of the finger lakes. They had no problem taking my license money,loved every minute of it.Only problem I have is trying to download the poll on dialup, just takes to long.If anyone could or wants to vote for me please do so. Nice state with lots of deer.
