REAL stuff?

A lot of what I read (sometimes here and often times, elsewhere) is regurgitated folklore and cookie cutter absolutes. What I get from here, mostly,is that odd tidbit every now and then that I can apply to my hunting situation(s). Those are the diamonds in the rough.....and they come mostly from very unsuspecting sources.

I've probably learned something from MOST people in here. I know there are those I can call any time and get their take on things. RJ and Rob/PA have ALWAYS been great sounding boards.

I've picked Matt / Pa's brain so much there's probably not much left... I'm thankful we've become such good friends over the years so that I haven't received a bill for all the info I've gleaned from him... He'sbecoming especially more important as a "mentor" to me as I ramp up my 3d efforts. Nothing like talking every day with a past Maryland IBO and ASA State Champion, Pennsylvania IBO State Champion and someone who finished in the top three at a Worlds shoot!! I respect that because I played tennis at an extemelyhigh level during my youth, and know it's one thing to win locally; it's all together another ballgame to win when the pressure's on and hundreds of eyeballs are watching you!

Following Matt, there's a long list... Rob / Pabowyer, Antler Eater, Shed33, buckeye, Paul Mohr, Arthur P, Double Creek (formerly known as Belle Island), TFOX... aw heck, why do I even try to start?? There's tons others as well. I'd give myself a headache trying to remember them all.

ORIGINAL: Vabowman

On this site?

Some dude from Chester taught me a fair amount about power bass fishing..... if that counts?!?!?!

PA Bowhunter cost me a few hours worth of labor just last evening with a few simple traditional shooting tips... what was 7 working arrows is now 3 working arrows and 4 with jacked up fletchings, fortunately I didn't robin hood one... but his tips were extremely useful and have me shooting much better already.

My first year here Davidmil taught me I don't need to cut shooting lanes a mile wide. He placed an emphasis on being low impact. That is one of many, many things I've learned here. When I found this sight I was a total newbie to bowhunting. I learned most of what I didn't learn from experience here.And I'm still trying to learn.

I learned that nearly everyone has something to teach and something to learn.

Knowing when to listen is more important than knowing when to talk.

There have been quite a few, but Arthur P would be number 1.
