ORIGINAL: IAhuntr

While Iappreciate the traditional look and feel of shooting arecurve, I love the mechanical aspect of the compound. The stealth and being able to hold at full draw. The high tech sights, releases and arrow rest. Must have been allthe Rambo movies. Or the Duke boys.
Yeah, thats what got me making 90yd shots over trees into the next clover patch with a half stick of dynomite

But call me an arsehole, and in no way am I knocking the traditional guys....as most are more humble and less of a prick than most compound hunters.......I love the fact that they can harvest an animal with stick and string....but where does it end......cheif knock'm'dead may not appreciate the 'traditional' guys today because of their use of camo, or binocs, or scent elimination products...what about stalking in your buck skins and no modern day conveniences such as camo or anything......I think all deer harvests that involved flinging an arrow are great accomplishments, but there is no end to who's the 'man' when it comes to hunting. there is always a harder way to do it.....we look at ourselves as more refined than the rifle only guys....as do some of the trad shooters look at us compound hunters that way. My hat's off to anyone that harvests a deer in a quick, efficient (or atleast trying to) manner.
