Coug,
That's exactly why I went to the "Pro38" this year for 3D......If I wanted to get as much as I could out of my ability on the course I needed a longer bow for stability.
The short ATA hunting bow I used last season wasn't bad, but it just wasn't as stable in my hands for an all day course and long range shooting (40+ yards).......for hunting it was a dream come true......for the highest scores possible on a 3D course or indoor spots ....it's just not the "Right Tool for the Job".
I think that's what it really comes down to......a longer bow can do it all more easily than a shorter bow. Even though the shorter bow has advantages in certain situations like blinds , stalking, or in a stand.
Yep.....use "The Right Tool for the Job". I'm stickin' to that.
At the very least it's an excuse to buy more bows!<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
