"Hardcore traditional zealot." SA, I might have been offended if I didn't know that comment came from a "hardcore techie zealot."[8D]

You might be suprized to learn that I'm not considered traditional by many other traditional shooters, not traditional at all, because I also own and use compounds and crossbows. Also, there are guys out there that don't consider a bow constructed with man made materials to be traditional. To them, a compound simply does not qualify as archery at all. Some flatly refuse to use the term 'traditonal'. They are simply archers and shoot archery with their bows made from all natural materials. They call the ones who use laminated glass and wood bows 'plywood benders' and say guys with compounds are engaging in an entirely different activity they term 'mechanist archery.'

Those are the guys I call "hardcore tradtional zealots" and they are proud to be called that.

How would you reconcile your no-holds-barred, unlimited technology vision of the future of bowhunting, including the blanket legalization of crossbows, with their point of view?
