All I can say is WOW!!!! I don't know what else to say becuase I see it two ways.

1st - I don't think it is as bad as Davidmil makes it sound. There is more bashing than congratulating at times, but I think a lot of times it's teasing taken seriously.

2nd - I do now what Davidmil is talking about. You have to be so carefull about what you post, in fear that someone will rip you apart. Or if your not part of a click, then you aren't as great of a hunter as he is. Despite that person bowhunting only one year, being in the click makes him a superior bowhunter and allows him/her to have an extremely big ego it makes you sick.

What it comes down to everyone would have to budge to make this site what it used to be. What is comes down to is I bet Len and Davidmil have more bowkills than 95% of the people here and it IS knowledge wasted regardless how you fell about them. I will neverNOT listen to someone who has killed a lot of deer. Hell,evenif someone withfewer bowkills thanme killsa deer, I will listen to what he has to say about the hunt, if the deer was called in, chasing doe in Early October, food plots, time they were moving. I might only choose to believe half of it, butI will always listen.

My father-in-law is and outstanding hunter, with many of tropheys. I look up to him in many ways. Not just because of his trophey bucks, but for many other reasons. I once told me to listen to every bit of detail from other hunter, keep picking more and more info out of the guy, the more info you gather, the better hunter you will be,believe what you want.He is also the one who told menot to be afraid to shoot doe.He said you can't get any better practice than that. Aslong as you do it legally, and youcan utilize the meat, go ahead.He saidthere is too many people whocan shoot outstanding scores in 3D leages/tournaments, but can't make a killing shot on a deer at 25 yards...sad thing is this istrue.
