I'll tell you the same thing I told MOTOWN the other day.....the difference is in the work/time it took to BECOME "proficient".....and the same effort it takes to remain that way.
I watched a Real tree road trips where Michael Waddell bow was lost on the plane. He picked up the land owners recurve shot some practice with it (good groups) and then killed a deer that night. Something tells me he doesn't practice witha recurve that much he might even have stated that on the show.
I think there are more people offended and threatened by his assertion than let on
To me it's sorta like the guy sitting down the bar telling everyone how good he is. Is it something to get offended or threatend by? Nope, it's more like you give them a shake of your head and say to yourself whatever Dude.
