Grew up in ohio . Family still there . They use tradbows , compounds and crossbows . They do shoot some nice bucks, but i think alot of it is timing of hunting seasons . Shotgun slug season starts in early december . They have the whole month of november to shoot deer with "archery" equipment . Ohio is really a nice archery state . Slug guns and not during the rut. A little bit structured like iowa with a higher population .
I have lived in minnesota 30 years . Hunt archery with trad equipment . I have mixed feelings about crossbows . I think there will be lots more "bowhunters " in the woods before rifle season . Crossbows are easy to get proficient with compared to other archery equipment . On the other hand when gander mountain went out of bussiness i got a deal on one . I'll mess with it and shoot . Maybe sneek in some tight spots on the ground later in season when its cold . I like to kill deer , but there's nothing like getting it done with a trad bow , but probably wouldnt complain to much killing a stud with a crossbow . ( will keep a tight lip with my trad buddies . Lol)
