"Elitism" is an inflammatory suggestion. Where did that come from?

I'd only ask you to re-adress the above statement after you've bought a trad bow and shot it for a while. Then re-adress it after you hunt with it.

I haven't killed a thing with mine. But I won't lie and say the compound (in my eye) is an "equal accomplishment". There's nothing "elitism" about that. Wouldn't it have to be derogatory in lieu of appreciatory (comments) to be labeled as "elitist"?

We could compare it to shooting a deer with a rifle v. shooting it with the bow.....if you want to.
