I do not agree.

Even if the shot is at 10 yards and you are equally accurate with both weapons, the traditional equipment poses bigger obstacles as compared to a compound.

When bow shooting, I can control when I draw back and when I release. When bowhunting, these things are usually dictated by the circumstances of the hunt rather than my comfort zone, that is if I want to increase mysucess rate.

So a 10 yard shot with an 80% let off compound that I drew back and held for 60 seconds or longer while he was behind a bush before stepping out into a shooting lane is much different than the guy with traditional equipment who does not have the same luxury, is it not?
