I'd say there might be a slight difference between other sports/recreation and bowhunting. The fact we kill live game might make a difference. No big deal if I hit a slice in golf or have a throwing erra in a baseball game. Wounding an animal in bowhunting should be a big deal. Thats what seperates us from other sports. So participation/preparation might a factor with bowhunting. If my preparation is sucking the life out of the sport I'd say thats a good thing. Better then the life of some wounded animal. The thing about this sport is you get back what you put into it. I hope that the kids coming into this sport get a chance to learn good ethics as I was taught. Jerry
