To each their own, but don't knock it until you've tried it. It's handgun hunting. I have messed with a few but only really shot one for hunting purposes last year, and it helped me understand the draw. There's no need to split the group, but we as humans always seem to. If it has wheels or shoulder mounted is it really archery? If it doesn't have a pan and has rifling is it really traditional? If it doesn't have a straight walled cartridge can it be considered handgun hunting? United we can stand against the opposition, divided we will fall, one goup at a time.
