Alot of hog hunting is at night if they are feeding nocturnal, same goes for calling fox or yotes into a blind. I got a rig from Cabelas, switch tapes to stock, light mounts on top of scope via clamp. there's a few different models, the low end ones wouldn't put out enough light for my V-zone at 30 yds.

Georgia

ARCHERY: Longbow and compound bows are allowed for hunting any game. Any bow used for hunting deer and bear must have a minimum pull of 40 lbs. Only broadhead type arrows are legal for deer hunting. Crossbows are not legal for hunting any species except by special permit issued by the Department. A crossbow hunting permit is issued only for hunting deer to persons with permanent, medically determinable physical impairments that precludes use of a traditional, hand-held bow. Disabled persons should contact the License Unit, 2189 Northlake Pkwy., Building 10, Suite 108, Tucker, GA 30084 (770/414-3333) for crossbow permit applications.

So, are you going to SHINE deer at night?

I don't hunt in the daytime, let alone nighttime..

However, I practice for far more hours a day than the sun will allow.

Whats with deer and light? Lost me on that one..

I did, I just don't see where deer fit into the original question.. Once it was determined that it can't be done something was said about shining a light on a deer.. That lost me.
Pretty much everything I own has had a light attached to it at one point or another.
Perhaps this thread isn't for me.. Sure looked like it though..

The thread starter is asking about Night hunting in Georgia with Crossbow.

Well, the Post about Georgia says: Crossbows are to be used on Deer only by Disabled Hunters!

Now will you kindly Post a State that hunting Deer at night is Legal?

Down here in the South, everyone knows what is meant by going to Shine Deer? (To Poach At Night With A Light).

I didn't buy my crossbow to hunt, I bought it because I thought it looked neat. The wanting to hunt part came later, everything I know about hunting came from what I read on this forum.
I live in Canada, now. I am American, born and raised in Detroit, owned homes in Florida, south Carolina and rented for a short time in Savannah Georgia.
Hunting terminology was never part of my vocabulary.
I have never heard theterm "shining" until your post.
I would not be able to direct you to the link/information you seek about night hunting.
Not "everyone" down south has heard the term "shining" just those in the hunting circle, or connected to it.

This is what we call a Snow Bird or Damm Yankee (Comes South and then leaves again up North)

Ahhhhh, a Ladies Man, Huh?

Do you know what Mooning means?

There is None in the 50 states!

Nope! Everyone one knows what Moon Shining is though!
