Default RE: What trade off in let off?

if I have to hold my 35% let-off for more than 20 seconds I MUST let up and rest.
20 seconds is an eternity. Shouldn' t anyone be holding draw for 20 seconds, no matter what the circumstance. Especially when they' re in the group in font of me on the 3D course!!! I don' t know why anyone would want to hold a bow at full draw that long. Unless....

If you' re talking about drawing and holding for a couple of minutes while waiting for a deer to come into range, that' s what I' ve been talking about on the crossbow thread. That' s why I call a lot of today' s compounds ' crossbow lites' . That' s why I say compound shooters that do that stuff don' t have an ounce of room to talk about crossbows. Crossbows aren' t drawn in the immediate presence of game, but neither are compounds when they' re used that way.
