Double Lung Em,

That was a cut and paste from King Geoge's website. I assume they were shooter of the year awards from different leagues.

gutshot,

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote<font size=1 face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>But I don't care who you are and how many awards that you have won, it's unethical to shoot at a live animal 70 yards away with the wind blowing so hard that you have to give your arrow 18 inches windage. <hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' size=2 id=quote>

It isn't unethical if you shoot enough to be able to judge the windage. If he was willy nilly guessing it would have been unethical but, when you're as good as him and you shoot everyday in the wind, I would imagine you get pretty good at judging windage. It's has been a couple of weeks since I saw that show but I could have sworn you got to see the 70 yd shot from the time he released to impact. I remember commenting to my father about him not being able to hit it any better than he did and how I wouldn't have shot at a bulldozer from that far. That's why he makes his living doing that and I don't.

Protect your hunting rights, &quot;Spay or neuter a liberal.&quot;
