What do YOU know about MOSTcompounder's and crossbower's lives? Are you involved in MOST compounder's and crossbower's lives?
fair enough - tell me how many compounders are there in your states archery season.
then tell me how many attend 3D shoots
theres your answer - I mean, what % of bowhunters go to these 3D shoots.
Archery shops open longer hours, hire additional help, stock shelves etc all in July/August because thats when most bowhunters get their groove back on. Most bowhunters are compounders.
Why is it OK for you to make blanket statements about MOST compounder's and crossbower's but not OK for anyone to make blanket statements about you?
generalize trad hunters, blanket us, go for it. As for me ? I shot almost every day the past few weeks, 15-20 arrows, all stump shooting in the woods. I don't do long shooting sessions anymore, focusing more on quality, one shot shooting.
Do not know, but I do know you do not make your bows or arrows
I do not make my bow, I do make up my own arrows (I don't make my own shafts). Is that what you define committment as ? If so, then true bowhunters are an extreme minority (self bowyers). You could make a semi-argument there, I'll admit
One last thing, why have a special season for bow hunters??? Your superior powers and hunting prowess should afford you better hunting than those loser crossbow and compound shooter, as well as the unthinkable gun hunters.
thats a confusing statement. Crossbows and compounds ARE in my states archery season. "better hunting" how do you define that ? Kill stats ? Accuracy ?
BTW trad hunting DOES make you a better hunter. Why ? Because its so much more difficult, you HAVE to be a better hunter.
burniegoeasilyits common knowledge you've got a beef with me anyways, half your responses to me is in a bitter nature, or I feel it is anyway
It's because my / our /youropinions are wrong, and his are right. It doesn't matter what we think or know or believe, we're just wrong.
It's fine for him to apply his views to the 3 million or so bowhunters/ archers in this country, he is our voice.
I guess we all just need to accept that.
Matt / PA again fair enough, but answer me why percentage wise so few compounders and crossbowers shoot throughout the year ? We can know they don't , looking at archery sales, the way archery shops handle their "seasons", a look at 3D participations etc.
Right ?
