My opinion is go play their game, have some fun, donate some meat, and make some new friends. I realize their attitude is ignorant but ignorance is just lack of knowledge and can be changed.

Make some new friends and get together to shoot, when you do this bring alon some trad gear and let them try it. I believe that alot of todays bowhunters have never had the experience of shooting a traditional bow.

With the media today putting so much emphasis on speed that many of the younger bowhunters look at traditional gear as glorified sling shots.

It will be easier to change their minds as a friend rather than trying to bully through it.

The catch more flys with honey than vinegar sort of thing.
Just my thoughts
