Fixed that for ya. Not sure why some people feel compelled to look down on someone for wanting an improved product. I don't look down on old farts wanting to stick with their antiques either. Live and let live. I could still kill deer with my 15+ year old bow, but I choose not to. Am I an inferior bow hunter because I - gasp - decided to purchase a newer model?
