Well, if you have a felony then I don't think your supposed have any firearms. Some people cannot have crossbows, depending on what kind of felony was committed. If you have a lawyer, you should ask him or her. If not, ask a magistrate.
This is what I was told by a federal game warden it is not illegal for a felon to hunt with a black powder gun or a standard bow. A crossbow is illegal. A crossbow, shotgun, rifle, or any handgun it is illegal for a felon to possess.

Being pardoned does not allow a felon to possess a firearm. Only an overturning of the conviction can do that.

It is a federal crime for a convicted felon to possess a firearm. I am not sure if you can bowhunt. Hunting with or possession of a bow or crossbow is a matter of specific state laws. Check the laws specific to the state in which you reside or intend to hunt.
Yes, as long as they are off of parole/probation. Illinois law does not consider a crossbow as a firearm.
