Good post Fran!!! These meatheads that won't admit that speed gives you an advantage makes me chuckle every time they post.
How many extra deer has this speed put in your freezer? Just curious.......since I'm a meathead and all. I know I can tell you exactly how many deer a slow 280ish FPS hunting bow has cost me.
I don't shoot a bow that fast. Never have...So it really hasn't put any extra meat in "my" freezer. However, it's an undeniable fact....the less time it takes the arrow to get to it's target, the less time the target has to react. Why is this so hard for people to understand. How can it not be an advantage. Maybe not much of one, but it definitely can't hurt.
I guess the reason for my post is that there are so many other variables out there that have a direct effect on your success in the woods that it's amazing to me people would consider something like this as an "advantage". If you like the speed because it's cool and fun to play with and you like the tinkering aspect and wow factor, then that's cool.......I do as well but I would never fool myself into thinking something like this would give me a measurable advantage over anything else out there when the rubber hits the road. I might justbe a meathead, but not because of my viewpoint on this I don't think.........[8D].
LOL!!! maybe "meathead" wasn't the right choice of words. I better get off this computer, I'm pissin' everyone off today. I do agree Matt, there are definitely many other more important variables that have an effect on our success. However, I just believe that speed does give us just another small advantage.
