Anywhere else I go, hunting with a compound is bowhunting. If you want to call it something else and it makes you feel all that special and different, have at it. Me and the rest of the world will call hunting with a compound, recurve or longbow, bowhunting. No matter how you mince it up, it's bowhunting, and that's the truth.
they call women in Iraq property .... I guess since there are millions of Arab's believing that its the truth then huh ?
you can call a cat a dog all day long .... your whole state can .... and that doesn't make it true either
a compound is allowed in archery season, they're not a negative, they've got 2 limbs, a string and they shoot arrows .... they're not really bows anymore because the limbs don't do anything but hold the cam's .......... that's the truth you're looking for
Ya suppose a long bow shooter way way back, who had to hunt just to feed his family, who'd never seen a recurve before, looked at a new recurve for the first time and thought, "that's too easy, it's going to ruin my hunting"?
no
I wonder what the compound bows of 50 years from now will be like. How much easier will it get? I did borrow a compound bow this year that I hadn't shot before since mine was being worked on. I put on a sight, shot 3 arrows, and proclaimed I was ready to hunt. Yeah, they aren't that hard.
they're designed to be easy - human nature screams "give me easy"
I've been bowhunting for 3 years, excuse me, I've been compound hunting for 3 years now. Haven't gotten a deer yet. Took a shot one day, nice doe, 15 yards, perfect broadside, right over the back.
compound hunting isn't easy compared to rifle hunting, I never suggested it was
If I'd had my recurve, I have several of those by the way, I think I could have hit it since I wouldn't have been fumbling around with peeps, releases, cheek buttons, and tru glow pins. Yup, recurve would have been easier, right?
yeah, no one ever misses 15 yard shots with recurves
I just don't see how the clashing of different opinions will solve anything. I guess that's why were here though, to share our opinions.
actually LOTS come of these threads IMO
I've been in the muzzleloader world for many years, and just like there what I see here is narrow-mindedness and bickering and hating on anyone who doesn't do things JUST LIKE YOU.
spaniel you're pro-crossbow then ?
