Saw this on the net. Thoughts anyone - especially since Texas has allowed crossbow use.

ASA to Include Crossbows at Pro/Am

The Archery Shooters Association recently announced that it will hold a crossbow exhibition competition at its London, KY Pro/Am on June 5, 2010. The 40 target, 3-D event will consist of two rounds (20 targets per round at a shooting distance of 40 yards). Two classes will be offered to participants based on bow speed. The entry fee is $30.00 for ASA members and $35.00 for non-ASA members.

This announcement is important, as it marks the first time that the ASA is including a crossbow competition at its event. With a positive turnout and continued support, it is possible the ASA will welcome crossbows at all future events as well.

This event can be a great opportunity for crossbow supporters to enjoy an afternoon shooting recreationally with family and friends. TenPoint Crossbows certainly supports the use of crossbows at these types of events and we encourage you to do the same.

To learn more about the rules and regulations and to register for this event, please call the ASA at (770) 795-0953.
