Tex,

I would be very interested to hear all the ways that it can help me. I haven't touched a weight in 5 years and although I hunt with 70lbs I can draw well over 100 lbs. I drew a Sampson the other day that maxed out at 92 lbs while I was setting down with my feet off of the ground. So, I don't really see where excercising is going to help me in that regard. If anything having the ability to draw that kind of weight is a liability because the temptation is always there. Holding the draw for and exteneded period and shaking also not an issue. I got a radio, a cell phone, a 4-wheeler, and friends so dragging has never been an issue. I trust God to do what ever his will is if I happen to fall and get injured, which by the way I don't personally believe has anything to do with physical conditioning. I hunt with a couple of guys that are in fantastic shape and they are good hunters but they don't kill more game than I do and probably to the contrary. The absolute best without a doubt bar none bowhunter that I have ever known is a guy in his late 40's with a potbelly. This guy is a legend in his own time. He has killed more big dder than all of the rest of the guys that I have ever know put together and he kills them year in and year out just like clock work and has done so for the last 25 years. His ability to consistently is one of the most aww inspiring things that I have ever seen in my 30 years on this big rock. But, there is know way Tim could jog a mile. He can walk all day long but you don't have to be in any kind of special condition to do that. Of the 5 best bowhunters that I have ever known only 1 works out and he is 4 or 5 in that list. I guess I am failing to see you guys point. I am not saying that it's a bad thing because it certainly isn't. However, it certainly isn't a necessity.
