Thank you for responding Tim. I would like to continue to support the NWTC and enjoy shooting in it. The beef that i have mostly comes from the flighting issues. It not only comes from the group that I shoot with localy, but with others that I have spoken with. We notice groups of family members and peer groups heading out together. I have actually heard people saying that the arrow is close enough, we will give it to you. To me it is either in or out. Close enough doesn't cut it. I think that it would be wise to check equipment also. Does the IBO cover the insurance? If so I beleive that there may be some liability involved if the 5 grains per pound is not enforced and someone gets hurt. This law was put into effect for safety reasons. Attendance seems to be dropping off. Not only at the TC but also at the local levels. I can see where the frustrations are coming from. If a person sees this time and time again, why not stay home and save some money. I might as well hit a local shoot if groups are not flighted or busted. I have set up courses and I know it can be difficult, especially in bad weather. I do appreciate you guys taking on the triple crown and thank you for your efforts. I do beleive however that I have some valid points. I am not only speaking for myself on this topic, I have kinda become the spokesperson for people in our area. I have alot of respect for you for responding to this topic. I know that it is not easy. Lets do what we can to keep the interest of the people that we have and also bring some new people into the sport. Have a great day and I look foward to finishing the TC even if I did have a train wreck on the first leg. Or wait-second leg- damn alligators anyhow!!!!!
