Hot Stuff!!!

LOL - let me tell you - at 46, anyone calling me "hotstuff" is ok in my book!! I see your deer issues, Im actually quite the careful shot on any game and give a pass to anything that looks "iffy". But I do love artillery type target shooting. Add a little breeze and the games afoot.

Ive got a compound, im waming back up to it, but I wonder if a handbow will ever allow me the accuracy a crossbow can give me. A 5" group at 50 yards to me isnt really as tight as Id like things to be and I wonder if perhaps a crossbow is the key to getting that kind of accuracy.

I know the banter goes on from side to side and just perusing the internet its amazing what myth is out their AGAINST crossbows, my fav is that they
lose velocity and energy faster than a compound bow shot arrow. Grains are grains and FPS is FPS but there you go. Its actually a little disappointing that there is such a rub between hand bow shooters and crossbow. they both have valid heritages and shining points.

Anyway, I want a system that will turn in something like 2-3" groups at fifty yards. Apparently a crossbow has to be the answer here as that kind of performance out of a handbow seems like olympic quality.

Oh the screwing around thing - my apologies if I seemed ... oh hell, curt. I think I did too, I reread it. I typed that just before I went to work. Probably my pre-work tension venting. My apologies.
