Would you say you have more knowledge when it comes to your equipment or the animal you are after?
The same?
For me I would say the animal. I pretty much let my local pro shop set me up then I go out and practice
and get tight groups and good to go. For example: If something happened like my D loop coming off I would probably be screwed. I have promised myself to work on getting to know the equipment side of things more.

I know almost nothing about bows and how they're set up.
I know deer have to eat, sleep and make little deer.....and that I have to to catch them on their way to doing one of those to be successful. That's about as simple as it gets in my book.
It depends on the animal, but the cut and dry answer would be my equipment.

The prey must have the predator, just as the predator needs the prey. One without the other is something less. The wolf without the deer becomes a dog. The deer without the wolf becomes a cow. And what does man become?
5 years ago I would have said the animal, without question.
Today I have to go with the edge on the equipment. 1. because I've learned so much about gear from this place, and 2. I keep learning I have a lot more to learn about deer.

rybo post just about sums it up for me, I am no expert bow wizard but I have a member on this forum to thank for the knowledge that I do (Big John) and its enough to get my bow tuned by myself to the point I want it, the deer on the other hand, every few years everything seems to change, its not so much the deer as the enviroment. Several years ago a narrow funnel behind my house was the "gimmie" spot and had constant use, now its rare to see a deer there. This past season my "gimmie" spot was gone due to timbering and a new county jail being built adjoining the property. As soon as I get a good pattern on the deer something changes.
