I do believe there are people on this board who can purchase a bow and be ready to hunt with it in a few days. But, I do not believe the majority of the last minute shoppers have the skill, understanding or desire do what it takes to be ready. This includes, but not limited to: Sighting in the bow, tuning the bow, making sure the broadheads fly right, and hit the right spot, shooting with hunting clothes on, mask on, gloves on, from an elevated position, at unknown distances......you see what I mean. Thats alot to get perfected in a day or two. Hitting paper plates is one thing, but as all you guys know, things change when its a living animal.

In case you are wondering I dont think Im one of the people who could be ready. With my current rig it took me a month before I felt comfortable shooting an animal, and Ive been shooting for 20+ years.
