Good post Schultzy.

I don't shoot traditional to necessarily take more deer. It is not a need of mine. But there are a lot of people out there that are the complete opposite.

By comparision, I had a 160 class pass by at 30 yards this year past year. A kid the very next day took a 40 yard shot on him with a rage broadhead and his new BowTech. I actually saw the deer cross a field after being hit. The hit was perfect, but the kid only got a few inches of penetration and only took out one lung. I helped him track the deer for about a mile and the kid went back the next day to follow up. Never found him. Iasked him why he took that far of a shot with such a large mechanical and he told me that all his friends and a salesman told him to use it. Weird part was he actually had some fixedblades in his quiver.
