Bobco,

No waves here...just a friendly discussion.

Forgiveness is a characteristic of the bow itself, determined by a variety of factors, not the least of which being axle to axle length, brace height, riser design, cam style and mass weight.

Accuracy, to me, would be being able to put the arrow where I intend it to go...repeatedly (related to consistancy). Accuracy is directly affected by the forgiveness level of the bow since it is much easier to be consistantly accurate with a larger brace height and longer axle to axle length bow.

I think we are both on the same page....the only disagreement I would have would be in the percentage that the archer versus the equipment play in accuracy....I would be more inclined to a 50/50 split....but that is just my opinion.
