Is it just me or isn't a bow a mechanical device.Isn't a rest a mechanical device.Isn't a release a mechanical device.Heck,a rifle is a mehanical device.If these things fail they can kill the person behind it.A bow could fail and hurt the person behind it really bad and send an arrow of course causing a bad hit.If we look hard enough we can find enough reasons to just stay home and watch t.v. instead of getting out and doing what we love.
Good point, so let me clarify what I was trying to say: The more mechanical a set up is, the more chance it has of breaking down. Sure bows are mechanical, but why not keep things simple, especially the very thing that has the potential to kill or wound a deer. All the crap we can put all over our compounds these days is crazy. Most of this stuff was put on the market because companies know that bowhunters will buy it. That's why I love a recurve - stick and a string, and an arrow and broadhead.
