ARE you implying that I'm lying?
Now WHERE did THAT come from????
I implied NOTHING of the such.
I've been saying for over a year how the noise from a WB cost me an attempt on a buck. I'm willing to take your word on the vanes as the truth. Why am I not afforded the same coutesy?
Simple,
1.I proved beyond a doubt that you can set up a W/B to shoot 4in vanes without damaging them. (see pics)
2. When you spooked that deer you posted on here that it was the Biscuit and ONLY the Biscuit that could have caused it. I remember replying that I thought it was probably something other than the Biscuit. I also remember saying that I believe (and I still do)you deep down insideare convincedit was the Biscuit...and that's ok.
What I and others tried to tell you was that, in our experience (which is a lot of years in the field) it was probably something else that got that deer attention but you would have nothing of that and dug your heels in the ground and stuck to your story. In essence you gave no mind to a lot of people with many many years of bowhunting. You never ever once said "it's possible I guess but I still think it was the rest" or ANYTHING to that nature. You simply dismissed what we had to say.
The truth is, there is no way to tell what spoked your deer, you have you theory and I have mine.Thefletching are quite another story, I proved that wives tale to be false....again in bows up to about 280fps.
So what I should have been reading was something in the order of:I was wrong about the vane damage, I guess you CAN shoot 4in vanes through a Whisker Biscuit without damaging them.
Instead I get.."good for you on the vanes"
Iknow how I am andI know itwould have been different had the roles been reversed.
