RE: HOT, GKF 2003 line-up!!!!

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quotequote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>all cornfed wanted to do was post some new info on a product made by a company he has a lot of faith in. Then everyone had to start comparing apples to oranges without even knowing for sure what the power drop looks like. man lets just all get along.....is that so hard to do? If we all spent this much time fighting the Anti-Hunter instead of ourselves we wouldn't have to worry about them. <hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote> My point is this was an original point to just get the word out, then you feel you have to come on preach your MZE talk & then bash the Mirage and then start in on a product you have not seen.

Moonge.....does that forward thinking also apply to stabilizers? I'm thinking I could plug in a few names and turn those quotes completely around.<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
People pay attention.....so please practice what you preach.
Not an attack just an observation.

I think the problem arose not so much with someone promoting a new line of products they like.....heck every one of us does that. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US.
The problem is GKF's use of the phrase "World's First Bow Driven Rest"
I think we are all in agreement here on that one.......and the use of that phrase is seen as more or less a slap in the face to a company who already has a proven product on the market that I believe under anyones definition is obviously "BowDriven".
GKF is free to use any "Buzz Words" they like........they're creating a buzz for sure right!?

But FACTS are FACTS and I just don't see how that ad slogan can be taken seriously?

And be sure I'm not "Bashing" GKF.....(seems as soon as someone has an altering opinion these days then right away they are a "Basher&quot

......I own 2 GKF rests currently that I really enjoy as well as 2 Tranquilizer stabilizers that I find OK at best, (but at least I tried them to find out for myself)

And I'd like to make a point concerning Len (And I use Len as an example because he's obviously involved with this topic)
What point many overlook in calling a shop owner like Len a "Basher" is that HE CANNOT AFFORD TO BASH. Archery is how a guy like Len puts food on the table so does anyone really think that he is going to shoot himself in the foot by downing an entire archery manufacturer? Because thru thorough personal testing he finds one product in a manufacturers line to provide more benefits than one of another make for a specific application he's BASHING?
Come on.......Good Proshop guys like Len work very hard to test their products and find the ones that they feel will benefit their customers in each situation. They must stake their reputations and business on these findings......there is no room for BASHING in his case. Only what is best for a certain customer based upon individual needs.

Lets keep the PERSONAL stuff in the holsters please......and we can debate issues like adults.
