Default Politically correct to be a traditionalist ?

I know it is not politically correct to be anti modernist but the April issue of Bow hunting World which I receive as an IBO member has several articles that make me proud to not be correct in this sense. First, Chuck Adams and his article , Accuracy lessons learned afield. This camo clad menace as he calls himself has sight pins set at seventy yards and has no problem shooting at such yardage. Second, the Pete Sheply article where he states that Pope and Young has a number of " sillyrules" we need to get rid of such as open on impact broadheads and 65 % let off, and then states he is a bit of an archery romanticist. Third Bernie Pellerite and his article on bow tuning ( not neccessary sez Bernie) Why do we as traditionalist feel we must stay united with such garbage when it is exactly this sort of thing that will hurt bow hunting for all of us. The idea of stand united or all fall seems some what false if we realise that eventually it will be the non hunting public (not the antis) that decide our fate and how will we be able to say lazer sights, trigger releases,high let off bows and the like is a primitive sport deserving of a seperate season ?
