quote "who are you to tell me I am not good enough to go hunting" If you are out there wounding numerous deer and flinging arrows 50 and 75 yrds. I will tell you your not good enough to hunt even if you don't like it. I am sorry but there are alot of people who have no buisnes hunting even if they are using sticks or rock's becouse they still have a good chance of hurting someone or themselves.

Quote " who deterimines the distance for me" All we are saying is the test is at some thing like 20 yrds. not that thats all the further you can shoot. If your friend can shoot good at 10 he can shoot at 2o yrds. too come on don't play games we all shoot bow here and you I and every one here knows that any one who has a tuned bow good arrows and a little practice can shoot at 20 yrds. it certainly doesn't take an archery world champion to hit a pie plate at 20 yrds.


Quote " why don't we leave it like it is when our mentors learned my decision is for me?" Becouse so many new people are getting into bow hunting that don't have mentors or don't have mentors that are capable of teaching them properly. Becouse we are becoming over run with slob hunter's.

SW. I understand that you are worried about being over run with reg.s but look at how long the hunter's saftey course has been alone there are many ways they make it harder for people to pass but they don't and I don't believe that they will over run this either. These programs are run by game agency's not government or anti's.
