Lol--it's easy, and there are two answers. I said my BOW is faster, not my arrows. One way to prove it is chunk it down-range like a spear (unstrung). Aim for a soft spot (pine straw, sand, leaves, high grass, etc.), no harm done. The other way is I can get at least two (usually more, easily) shots off before a compound shooter releases one--and accuarately.

Now that I've divulged my "secrets", I expect you to send me 50% of all themoney you win bettingwith your compound-shooting friends![8D]

My last trick is my "Jean-Claude van Damme" shot, where I shoot my longbow while doing the splits. I'm 6' 2" or 6' 3" (depending on which leg I stand on), well over 300 lbs, and pushing 40. You'll have to come to a tournament to see me do this--I ain't posting a picture. No trick to this one--I'm just limber for a fat boy. Ain't talking about some old man split--I could touch the ground if I did it nekked (ain't doing that either, and sure as heck ain't taking a picture!).

Come to Cloverdale, the TN Classic, the Jerry Pierce Memorial shoot, orthe Howard Hill and I promise you that, unless I'm injured, I'll do it. Worth the trip just for that!
