First off welcome to the WONDERFULL(and I do mean WONDERFULL) world of hunting. A crossbow is legal so by all means if you want one than get one. Barnett and ten point are two top models. The most important part of hunting, especially with a bow/crossvow is practice practice practice. You need to learn what your weapon can and cannot do. You need to realize that a crossbow is not a rifle and you should not shoot it past 40 or 50 yards. You owe the animal the utmost respect and be sure that when you shoot and game that you can be sure to harvest it in the quickest and most humane way possible. Go the an archery store and shoot as many crossbows as they have. Find one that fits you than practice. If you are looking to purchase one now rhan I wouldn't take it into the woods until at least January or even next season. Most important rule in hunting is to respect other hunters and the animal you are looking to harvest. Good luck!
