Default RE: How do you rate yourself?

I am finding it interesting seeing how people rate themselves. I have seen a number of people rate themselves below what they probably are (modesty is a good thing) and some are rated around where I expected, and others have overrated themselves IMO. Like I said before the categories are just a jumping point to be expanded on.
kshunter, I know what you mean about college. Girls, beer, parties definitely take a toll on hunting time. When I was in school, opening day of archery was after bid acceptance night at my fraternity the year I pledged. I woke up an hour and a half after passing out reaking of booze and headed for the woods. Luckily there was a downpour so I got to go back to bed.
Greg, there is nothing lowly about being a hunter. Bowhunting isn't about being crazy about getting perfect arrow flight. Some guys are so fanatical about it that they forget that they need to scout so they can see a deer to shoot that finely tuned arrow at. Pros are guys that not only have their equipment tuned perfectly, but have their shooting form perfected, have excellent property to hunt with trophy potential, know every deer on that property, and know every trail that the deer use. People like that aren't common and they usually have jobs that afford them the opportunity to spend more time than the normal guy working on their equipment and scouting.
Nobody should be ashamed of any of the rankings.
