very interesting, I am not a cut rate competetive archer..>Thanks JRW for the complement!

Sorry but to much hypothetical BS for my tastes! We have it, there is no one other then bowhunters running it supported by the state! Its a shame yall think that way!

Also to the deer killer, I am sure he can hit an elk at 28 yards 1 out or 2 times!




One thing yall keep missing on the point here. Atleast up here, this proficency testing IS NOT TO DISCRIMINATE. I'll tell ya, even the stickbow guys can make an easy and quick change to nab that elk if need be and go back to there comfortable range of 15 or 10 yards. Also considering our targets here. There are VERY FEW people on here that WOULD NOT shoot a moose at 30 yards. There are many more that wouldnt shoot a deer sized critter. The only thing in this test is to make sure you know what your doing, when ya walk up with price tags hanging off your bows, your dang right your going to get a blind eye from everyone there!

Jerry is the ONLY alaskan bowhunter I have MET that doesnt agree with the proficency testing!

This testing has been around and hasnt been touched by anti's!

btw JRW, your dang right trad bows are just as accurate as anything on the market. Its a shame so many stickbow benders shoot like crap and blame there equipment. Heck even wheelie folks do the same! There is just no excuse for it......wow, another reason for the proficency testing! OMG

I like this, warm and fuzzy PR move....sorry charlie, its all in education! There is going to be NOTHING that makes EVERYONE happy....right now its a matter of policing our own! And this hole deal of making so they cant hunt......considering 90-95% of the state is wide open, thats what 2 and 2/3rds the amount of land texas has....gee!
