That's not a bad idea.....I just had another thought....Should we be testing proficiency, or competency??

I dunno man......Bad shots are gonna happen.....We can test until we're blue in the face, but until it's in an ACTUAL hunting situation, complete with adrenaline, elevated positions, expectations, weather, small limbs, state of mind, and everything else that goes into one single shot on a live animal.........I just don't think it's ever going to be accurate. There is simply no way of knowing how a shot will go on a target range....We haven't even gotten into the deer's frame of mind yet....I've seen perfect shots go bad from jumping the string or the deer taking a step forward RIGHT the moment of release.......I just feel there are simply too many variables that cannot be accounted for.

And even with all of that......We're people, and not perfect. Everyone's gonna flub a shot at some point in their life, of that I'm MOST certain.
