The learnign curve for a crossbow is much shorter than for acompound.
Still, within 2 weeks of steady practice in the back yard, you shoudl be able to use a compound bow adequately for most hunting.
Or so I am told

I Guarentee you that if you buy a Exomag, you only need 10 minutes to site it in and for the next 3 years you'll never have to touch it again. After that its just shoot and point. All Excalibur xbows come with scopes which have yardage marks on them. All that you need to do is to be good at judging yardage

Judging yardage is 90% of bowhunting :wink:

The single projectile ban is in effect due to the close proximity to houses. The fraser valley is an excellent example of this regulation.... lots of coyotes and other varmints enter onto farmers fields... but the back stop is another farmers house ( way in the distance). A slug or a rifle round is more likely to travel the distance than shot is.
Its for safety, not efficiency.

Interestingly enough hoochie, in studies where they've done the same thing for the same reasons in the states, they've found accidents are higher with shot than slugs.
Frankly - i can see slugs only as a way to keep ranges short (goodness knows they ain't going far) but I think we'd be safer with one well aimed round than spraying the landscape.

Single projectile forbidden..... 8)
hmm.
Look up for G11. the first 3 rounds are in so called "wave of impact" , no recoil operation for the three, no cases to define a "round" and the projectile is definately more than adequate for hunting.
