Guys I have seen give solid advise would be people like Byron Ferguson, or even read about folks like Howard Hill, who shot very strong bows. Or even Chad on here who shoots strong bows.
Whats even more comical is most of these older fellas I see stuggling to come back with thier arrows. They make all kinds of excuses. Mostly talk, talk on how they used to be so good. They usually do more talking than shooting.
