My first answer would be to kick the open class out of 3D. Turn it back into a bowhunters' game instead of cutthroat competition. It'd go a long way toward getting recreational shooters back.

Not many people - especially kids and older folks with infirmities, have the staying power to spend all stinkin' day to shoot a measely 30 arrows. 3D has gotten flat boring to most people because of all the standing around and waiting. That's not simply my opinion. That's the main complaint I've heard from shooters in my capacity as a club officer and tournament director.

I'm sure all the open class shooters will put on their wings and halos, then chew my arse over saying something like that. But what they SAY on these forums hardly ever works out true in real life.
