Am I a bowhunter?
Simple enough question, right? Well, maybe not.
I have noticed a growing trend of folks who are adamant about certain equipment choices. Folks who not only refuse to accept that there may be more than one option but also will downplay the "other options" at every twist and turn. Some really good examples of equipment that has come into question would include ICS carbon arrows, drop away rests, mechanical heads and improved fiber optic sights....not to mention any advancements in bow designs since the 1980s. Examples of that would be single cam or hybrid cam bows, split limbs and/or carbon risers.
Am I an irresponsible archer and bowhunter for choosing equipment that does need meet up with others' requirements for good, reliable equipment??
