billygoat,

I am glad to hear that you are getting something out of this...

Bob-co,

Our past few posts seem to all stem from this statement that I made...

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote<font size=1 face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>...since speed is more important in 3D and accuracy/forgiveness can be more controlled on a 3D course than when out hunting.
<hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' size=2 id=quote>

What I meant, is that it is easier to pay attention to form issues when in a more controlled environment....such as a 3D course where we know the &quot;target&quot; isn't going to move before, after or during the shot. We have more time to make judgements on distance and to mentally &quot;follow through&quot; with shot preparation and execution.......which isn't usually the case when bowhunting.

In stating &quot;accuracy/forgiveness&quot; I was not implying that they were both the same or that they could be used interchangeably but rather that the two are almost always linked....especially in an extremely &quot;stressful&quot; situation such as bowhunting.

Thank you, sincerely, for the &quot;unheated&quot; debate. That is one of the reasons that it is so refreshing to post here.
