I never have shot a setup in competition that would be out of place in the woods. Even for NFAA dot shooting I always shot in the bowhunter and traditional classes. But I like hunting with my longbows much more than I do with compounds, so I' ll do more shooting in the early season stuff with compounds and as it gets closer to hunting season the longbow will occupy more of my time.
I' ve tried scopes and pole vault stabilizers and quickly decided I' ve got better things to waste my time and money on.
