RE: are we over regulated as bow hunter's?
<font color=red>"I guess now your going to tell me thats stupid and unneeded also becouse us competitive shooter's can drill target's but we can't hit a deer."</font id=red>
That would be rather odd, given my competitive shooting history. Please don't argue things that I haven't even said.

No one on this thread has said that it does. Why do you keep countering an obviously rediculous point that hasn't even been made?
<font color=red>"Even your friend can do it. If he still chooses to only take 10 yrd. shots at deer good I commend him."</font id=red>
Whether he could or couldn't, with more practice, is not the issue. The issue is who are you to tell an obviously ethical and sucessful bowhunter, who knows his limitations and stays well within them, that his shooting isn't good enough? Why should anyone feel inclined to live up to your arbitrary shooting standards when he's already demonstrated his ability to cleanly take animals without wounding losses.
You said that the goal of this is <font color=red>"to make sure that they can kill a deer before they take to the woods to do it".</font id=red> Well, this guy has already proven that point, with more deer in one year than many "experts" here have taken with a bow in their lives.
Apparently though, that's still not good enough for you. And that...IS the issue.
