RE: spot-hogg and sword sights
thanks for thinking about it. a lot of folks read and never post, or comment. they can take what some person says doesn't matter, because they don't understand it, or don't use it - because they don't understand it, and they'll blow it off. maybe they'll blow it off for 6 months, maybe a year, maybe 2 years. sooner or later though, if they want to continually improve their shooting, they'll beging to understand and use the 2nd and 3rd axis. so someone who just seems good at what they are talking about, but doesn't really know what they're talking about can unwittingly putothers off learning and improving by doing what they set out to - to get other folks to think they know what they are talking about.
there is no way learning to use the 2nd and 3rd axis will make you a worse shot, it can only make you better. the adjustments to your equipment are made long before you get in a stand or blind. there is nothing extra to do when hunting - only when practicing, and a level reference for competing.
now, this info may not apply to those who were hunting dinosaurs with a bowin their youth - cough - cough, nudge nudge wink wink (coug - hope that tickles you)
