From the responses I've gotten, I'd maybe consider another city or state. I'm not personally familiar with either of those forms of archery, but they're probably illegal in Greensboro.

Due to your desire to roam freely among the public while openly displaying weapons of mass destruction, and possibly or possibly not shooting whatever may pop up in front of you, perhaps you should consider staying where you are. Sounds like the populace of Morristown is okeydokey with it. Just a thought for your consideration.

Weapons of mass destruction? I believe that's what Kim Jong Un has. We've got bows and arrows, man's oldest and most effective defense arsenal. And I'm sorry, but we just closed on a home that needs a little work. So get ready Greensboro!

Actually, it's more like get ready squirrels, feral cats, and assorted vermin of Greensboro. One thing talking to y'all has taught me is: you might not like me, BUT AT LEAST I DON'T NEED A PERMIT TO SHOOT IN THE PARKS OF NC!

Sorry, quite wrong. Illegal to shoot an arrow in the city limits of G'boro:

"No person shall, within the corporate limits of the city, or within any area owned or leased by the city, shoot or project any stone, rock, shot or other hard substance by means of a slingshot, bean shooter, shot shooter, air rifle, popgun, bow or other similar contrivance; provided, that archery shooting may be engaged in on such grounds as may be set aside and approved therefor by the city manager, and designated as archery ranges."

If you want to keep this charade going please do.

Well, tell that to my 6-year-old son, who happens to carry a bow and happens to be a crack shot. Oh, and also tell that to the squirrels, cats, snakes, ducks, and assorted vermin who happen to land in his sights. I'm sorry, but am I the only one who smells a fish here? Where did you even dredge up that "law." Or DID YOU WRITE IT YOURSELF?

Your list of "vermin" is now expanded to include ducks and snakes? Anything else?

Does anyone disagree with what I’ve been saying? That this is nothing but a troll thread?

LOL. No, ducks is probably stretching it. They're too slow anyway. Do you have a problem with shooting at snakes, though? Where I'm from, they're considered pests.
