jerk's at the range!
Went to the range today to check my zero on ibex.when I got there two guy's were set up on 1st lane so I set up on last lane.About 10 min.after I started shooting one of them walk's up to me and say's he doesn't appreciate me shooting up HIS haybale with that crossbow! Well being the southern gentleman I am,I explained to him nicely that this was a PUBLIC range and that I didn't know it was his haybale! That's when he said something about my manhood and crossbows.At that I explained how I could find another use for that 3ft stabilizer!!,and that I will NEVER apologise for my weapon of choice! Can u belieave this at a public range?!!!!!!

Re: jerk's at the range!
I would have taken down a license plate number and any other identifying info and turned him in to the local authorities.
A firing range where everyone is armed is no place for people who like to run their mouth.

Yep,Can u belieave this at a public range?!!!!!!
The general population is overrun with idiots and you can encounter them at any public place.
When reason and common sense don't win out, a good show of force may at least get them to shut up.At that I explained how I could find another use for that 3ft stabilizer!!

Re: jerk's at the range!
I have been hunting on public property since 2006 here in Georgia. Side by side with all types of bow hunters. I have never had a single problem. Not one spoken word against crossbows. Not even joking around.
I'm surprised.
You can still thank your lucky stars to be in Georgia. In Mississippi, an other uneducated places, they don't even allow crossbows on the range.

I'd rather wear out than rust out.

The guy is a narrow minded idiot. Walk away. You did it right.

Re: jerk's at the range!
Some times it is better to just walk away,you are the better man for that.
I know it would of been hard not to tellem where to go in that circumstance.

Re: jerk's at the range!
while I understand the 'walk away' attitude by many
I disagree.....by walking away and/or leaving you have given him what he wanted in the first place....you and your xbow off of HIS range.
He 'won' so to speak
I would seriously call the authorities or the range master if there is one.
Get one of those $10 key fob spy cameras off ebay and video the guy being a Dhead to show them.
Show up next time with about 6-8 friends with xbows and shoot the hell outta HIS target lol

Re: jerk's at the range!
With that guys logic I suppose the guy shooting a glass laminated recurve or longbow should be upset with the compound archer shooting up his bales. Guy or gal shooting primitive might as well be upset with with the trad shooter. Oh, you could of course vent on the CBer using a compound CB.
Take care...
