Would you find it interesting"?

Would you find it "interesting" to know everyone's "affiliations" (however slight or strong) with all archery mfr's.?

Would it affect how you viewed/weighed their posts?

It might affect how I viewed their posts, but not necessarily in a bad way. It doesn't automatically make me discount what they have to say, that's for sure. I let hard data decidewhat I listen to and what I discount. Feel free to give me your opinion but I need data to believe it as gospel.

Nope, some people think or feel they need to prove they know it all! I know who I can gather useful info from, the others, strictly entertainment!

I suppose that went by like an F-16

Great post, Matt.

Not in the least to both questions.

I suppose with some it would, but those that I've read enough from to trust their judgement it would have no affect.

Do you never wonder why some products are touted as heavly as they are......and why?

One of the toughest and most important things to do in life is to develop the ability to sift through all the BS in order to obtain the information that you want/need.

I sure as hell do! I like the products I use, but I don't have the fanatic approach that some do, perhaps company affiliation is a reason for the fanatacism.

It would be ineresting to see that but it doesnt mean I would nessessaraly discount thier opinion. It would still be....thier opinion.

No. I know there are many factors behind any given opinion and it doesnt bother me (unless someone is truly trying to deceive - then they can [:-]). I take all answers with a grain of salt and I would expect others to do the same with mine. I think that should be common sense for people?
