Yes it has "gotten out of control" to some extent. We as hunters are just preyed upon as any other consumer. Targeted marketing,mass product exposure and endorsements. Then we buy, buy, buy kinda without thinking because the "thinking" has been done for us.

One of the biggest jokes in my opinion are these scent suits. Of course you don't want to hunt with Old Spice on you, but clearly what emits the most odor from a guy is his breath.Another thing I get a kick out of is the rage over expandable broadheads. Your basic Thunderhead will kill a deer just fine - they've been doing it for years and years. One good shot with 3 (or 2) blade and you've got yourself a deer.

Oh and it is common knowledge now that if your bow won't do nearly 300 (or +) fps I think the arrows bounce off the deer.
