I'm a bowhunter who loves archery........
I'm competitive so I shoot competition in the off season and love tinkering with new gear, but as soon as mid summer starts to roll around the gears shift and I sort of glaze over thinking about falling temperatures, mornings on stand and that crunch in the leaves.
The competition aspect and all the shooting practice really goes well with the hunting part.......a high attention to detail with your shooting and gear is one less thing to worry about in November.
