How unfortunate for so many.

I've been a gun hunter for 23 years and last year decided to extend my hunting season by getting into archery.

I did a lot of research on riser height, axle-to-axle length, reflex geometry, etc. I learned how each of these factors affects the arrow flight - and more importantly, how they affect the shooter.

I shot nearly every brand of bow I could find on the market - if it was at a bow shop in the area, I tried it.

Now, from a "rookie" perspective, I didn't know which was "better" - I only knew what was more QUIET and which was more COMFORTABLE for me.

Guess what ? I bought the best bow I could afford. I've practiced at reduced draw weight to get used to pulling a bow. Then I turned it up a notch and practiced more. Then up a little more poundage, and a lot more practice. I have no doubt that I will take a deer with it this season - my first with a bow.

The brand ?

It's a "itdon'tmatteraslongasiamminthewoodshunting".

Oh, and by the way - Nissan is better than Toyota (sorry - I had to - I got tired of the Chevy/Ford/Dodge debate)
