Default RE: 'the best shooters in the world - hunters'???

Wow never knew there was such a line drawn. I shoot Local Leagues with decent success. I am a Hunter 1st and foremost and shoot leagues to stay sharp in the off season. YES I am personally,F-A-R from the National Level of competition, but in the local shop I shoot next to guys who are Staff Shooters and shoot State and National Level Tournies. I shoot and get great advice from a guy who has won many levels of State and National Senior Division Trophies. I believe he has even won the Senior Olympic Title at least in Pa.
These guys are all stand-up guys willing to help out others be them Pro or Hunter. I guess I'm lucky to shoot in a small shop where putting an arrow in the X ring is everyones goal.

Who's a better shot?? Hands Down the Unlimited bunch. At least in that situation. We kid about thier stabilizers that are so long they could punch holes in the target. Or the sights that make the X look like it's at the arrow tip. While we struggle to try and center in the yellow cuz we can't even see the lines. But we are not there to compete with them. We compete in our own classes. We are successful at our venue (the woods) they are succesful at thier venue (competition).

It's like the guy who has the Corvette asking the Guy who has the Truck to race..The guy in the Truck says sure you name the time I'll name the place.. The Corvette guy says "3:00 PM"... the Truck guys says "ok We'll race up Suicide Hill and through the Mud Bog"
