Default RE: The way the indians did it - Bowhunting

Okay, let's use a conversation I had with Matt about his trophy buck this year. It's a damn good thing he had his traditional gear with him. The way the shot played out and I hope you remember, we talked that it was a damn good thing he didn't carry his compound because he feels he would have NEVER got a shot off. He was all but laying on the ground, blindly grabbing an arrow and knocking it, drawing and shooting instinctively with his bow just inches off the ground and almost parallel to it. He mentioned that buck would have never stood there for him to draw, anchor, set his pin and release. SO having his traditional gear made that hunt easier? Could that be said? It would have been harder to get a shot off with a compound so a compound hunt could be harder?
