What if we take the two guy scenario away, Rob?

Now we don't have to worry about whether one learns faster than the other to become proficient. Same guy......let's use Matt/PA for the example. Which hunt do you think he'd say was "harder"?
Ah Jeff, coincidence that you post that after I posted what I posted at the same time.

I agree AP, very much so but bc said about norms and in most polls, the majority of deer are taken 20 yards and in.

I threw up my own experience of missing a buck at 16 yards, I'm here to tell you that I could have hit the damn thing with traditional gear so why would traditional gear have made that hunt "harder"? That's all I'm asking and I'm yet to see a valid reason.

I'm not talking that a compound "can" give you more yardage options, to some, not others so again, harder or easier for whom, only the proficient right? Isn't that what were really talking here? The best of the best against the best of the best, then yes, traditional is a harder hunt because of yardage limitations but

bc, is that a norm, I ask an experience traditionalist such as yourself.
