Jeff,

I hear ya, and understand the scientifics of the intense working of spines, shaft spinning, etc., my only comment was without a doubt, right out of the box the Rage is by far the choice for me. I could spend a ton of money and time with the physics and equipment to work hard at tuning other BH's to work well enough to hunt with, but the comment was simply to comment on the consistency of the Rage vs others.

I could invest in all of the vises, spinnners, fletching devices, etc., but when it comes down to taking something out of the package and screw it to the tip of the arrow of my choice and have a high 90%'s of accuracy....there is nothing else to argue.

True there are the geometrics, weights, spinning, tuning, spines, and everything else a true competetor in archery would do for tournaments, but Im out to drop some venison and what I commented on was that undoubtedly my choice was what I mentioned.

If I ever get to compete against the best in 3D and inside archery tournaments with $2000 bows and $300 arrows, I would ceratinly see your side and points of aggressively achieving maximum output of my equipment.

I climb trees with my bow, walk through mud, often drop or snag it on a branch or two, climb into my stand and sit and wait for a shot at a lung or two, and whether or not I have spent many hundreds of $ at a pro shot or not, my rage will seek its target with basic equipment, very accurately, right out of the package.

Simply my point
