Post by: Ridgerunner on April 18, 2012, 10:41:59 AM

a crossbow isn't archery equipment. It's a crossbow.

Would be for someone with a disability that qualifies for the exemption, but otherwise, no.

Nope. A crossbow isn't a bow.  Anyone that tells you otherwise is wrong.

Really don't see the problem with this since you can use a bow now if you want....

A crossbow is not archery equipment under WDFW definition. Thats why they are not allowed in the archery season. Pretty simple.
