Arthur:

The " real men" comment was taken from a commercial and was meant to be a joke. Sorry if you took any offense. None was intended to anyone.

I' ll stand by my " Sometimes we have posts that " do not belong" . comment. There are some that are blatantly, harshly sarcastic. I welcome differences of opinion as I expect to offer my differences of opinion. How those opinions are presented is what I sometimes question. It' s those blatantly, harshly sarcastic posts that are " rude, immature and offensive" .

The ability of anyone to shoot 300/60X indoor rounds has absolutely nothing to do with the acceptance of any bow. I' m sorry but we' ll have to totally disagree on this one. My reasoning is that the shorter ATA bows do not lend themselves to indoor rounds; but, are very popular with the hunting community - and rightfully so. I wouldn' t use one, but that' s my choice. At least I' ve got a choice; which is what the archery community gets with let-off.

One man' s junk is another man' s gold. Some like the higher let-off where others do not. At least we have a choice and the manufacturers will pursue the variations and weed out those which do not sell. If the majority of archers want a specific design and any one small group is offended - they loose. I' ve had the misfortune of a manufacturer discontinuing a bow that I really liked. That' s life.

I agree with Frank that you may be taking this post too personally.
