I am an example of that. I basically quit bow hunting because I no longer found it safe to hunt from a tree stand (I am age 68) and I had to decrease the draw on my compound. Last year I bought a new bow with the bow-draw-lock system and started hunting again from the ground. Shot a six point from a ground blind sitting on a camp stool.
If cross bows were allowed I would have started up much sooner. I don't qualify for the cross bow permit for the regular season so old age is not a qualifier, you have to be disabled and though I am 30% disabled by the Veterans Administration I am not disabled by the DEEP. Anyway, lacking cross bows I would suggest the bow-draw-lock system for juniors and seniors and anyone in between who wants to hunt from the ground.
