My neighbor came over one day and brought his crossbow. Asked me if I wanted to try it. The next day I was in Academy scarfing one up.
Christmas Eve I took the crossbow and sat in a ladder stand and watched a bunch of deer walk right under me- the wind was perfect. Then three hogs came in and ran all the deer off. I shot this one at 10 yards, it ran about 150 yards and piled up. I'm hooked.

The ladder stand is 15 yards from the feeder. It's close enough the deer sound like they're eating CornNuts instead of corn.
