OtherGary,
We live in a wonderful world of mixed understanding and people that are flatly uninformed. In some parts of New york state rifles are not allowed but there are no restrictions on the cartridge/caliber of pistols. Hence the T/C encore has become quite popular there.
I have taken full advantage of the population boom of the native whitetail in VA which has led many county supervisory boards to introduce 'urban archery' which runs roughly from Sept. to the end of March!
In the old days, deer season was two weeks and they had to have horns, enter the Twilight Zone, now season is seven months and they gotta be female.
Keep flowin' with the changes and stay informed.
Thanks,
Jimmy
