I would assume it was fun for them (as it is for me) or they wouldn' t be doing it.
That' s just it, Silent... they AREN' T doing it. The greatest majority of bowhunters don' t touch their bows for months at a time and only then it' s only for hunting season. Our club could pass for a traditional only club for 10 months out of the year because it' s a rare event for a compound to be on the range except during tournaments and then from August thru September. If people truly enjoyed shooting, then why do so very many come up with the lame excuse " I don' t have time to shoot." Most people MAKE time to do the things they enjoy, don' t they???
In all honesty it seems like the traditional archers are the ones drawing the lines, not the other way around.
You do have a firm grasp of the obvious.
