Look at it this way (to keep using my golf analogy).....

A guy practices his golf swing .....every day at the range....and achieves 100% PERFECT form. His pre-shot routine is flawless. His mental images are pure. He goes to the course for his first round of golf.....stands on the first tee......and drives the ball PERFECTLY.....right down the middle. When he reaches his ball....he find that his ball has now rolled into a divot.

Guess what???????
I'm not picking up your analogy here......

The man is trying to tell you that he's a hunter.....and that perfect form/tuning isn't always required.....and isn't always available....and isn't, for practical matters, ACHIEVABLE. That's all he was saying......
I have read enough of coug's posts over the years to know the man pays attention to the details and makes informed decisionswith his hunting equipment. I was merely pointing out my experiences.

I don't hold much merit in the guy that has perfect form ....standing on flat ground.....with a plumb bow (thank you).....and a sight that's precision-tuned on EVERY axis......

.....being ANY more qualified than a man that's practiced the "over the right shoulder...from a sitting position" shot from a platform @ 20 feet.
Seems you have been to very few 3D venues from your description of "perfect form".

Let me ask this...... From your PGA days did you compete with over the counter Walmart / Dick's clubs ordid you usecustomized specialty clubs?

How is this (a finely tuned club) any different then a finely tuned sight?
