You know that if they were truely for the promotion of the bow hunting sport and for "scintifically" honoring the animals taken then the 65% let off rule was bogus in the first place
Don't kid yourself, if it was not for Pope and Young, the people who promoted archery, and those who continue to promote bowhunting and fair chase bowhunting, it would not be what it is today! Bet you most if not all of the bow manufacturers are somewhat thankful.
Then you have a bunch of old farts that feel they're skills with their 65% bows are somehow superior to the rest of us and feel the need to not keep promoting the bowhunting sport and only promote what they feel is apropriate.
I guarantee you could shoot a bow with 65% and even a lower letoff as well as you do a high letoff bow!
Funny thing this letoff deal........most archers that shoot 80-85% letoff bows I know, jack their poundage up.
