Default RE: Am I a bowhunter?

Speaking of getting it crammed down your throat...

What happens with every newbie that goes into a shop and buys a bow? Does the guy behind the counter tell the newbie he can buy a $15 flipper rest and a $5 tab and get pretty darn good with that bow, does he? Hell no he doesn't! He starts slapping all kinds of accessories down on that counter at $35 to $150 a pop and telling the poor sucker that he needs every bit of that stuff.

I find it rather odd that I would be accused of trying to ram my viewpoint down everyone's throat in view of standard operating procedure at the pro shops. Don't you?

Did I ever say people can't do fine with mechanized equipment? NO! What I've been saying all along is, "there is more than one way to skin a cat." I happen to think my way is less expensive and a lot less frustrating. Problem is, it's not as profitable for the pro shops and I think that is what is getting me into hot water with a lot of folks on this site.
