Well license sales are up which is a good thing. I wish they would have kept crossbow license sales separate from the rest of the archery licenses. Would be interesting to see the success rate difference between archery and crossbow. Crossbow harvest went way up in 2012, which I am assuming must have been due to a much longer season.
I know, that would have been interesting for sure. I agree with you that the longer season made a difference, also, not very many people had crossbows 2 years ago, but now it seems as if everyone has one. Late summer we will sell 2 or so a day at the store, mostly people who want to be able to hunt that long season, but, that don't want to put in the time to get good with a vertical or they were older/younger and just couldnt use the vertical bow.
