RE: Rumors of Let-off % being revisted by P&Y

Sorry, I' m a little late on this topic.
Their book was started by traditional hunters, meaning Longbow and recurve shooters. Then along comes the compound bow and they all have their panties in a wad over this dumb limit!! 50%, 65%, 75% or even 80% let-off makes no difference. You still have to draw the bow back and make the shot, period!!
I would like to see them change the book but in this way, make one book for the traditional shooters and one for the modern bows. Case closed then. Everyone can be happy and have there bucks " in" the book if thay so please. With the amount of hunters on the decline and the deer populations on the increase, there will be many more book bucks taken over the years to come. I shoot 80% let-off and won' t change, this is my preference. But with that choice I can' t enter the " book" if I ever do luck out and get a monster??? BS!! They have to change with the times, and by going with two seperate books eveyone wil be happy!! My two cents on it!!
