How old are you thesource ?

Compounders are not the dedicated lot that trad guys are. Some are - for sure, and they number many because there are millions of compound shooters.

Look back on the threads leading up to last deer season. 1 week before opener and guys are freaking saying their bows aren't shooting good, or their broadheads fly different or what head should i shoot etc etc.

Dime a dozen, and I mean that, and its not restricted to compounds, its recurve shooters, rifle shooters, shotgun shooters, compound shooters - its widespread.

I'm pretty dedicated - hunting is what I do - it IS my hobby with few other things getting any attention. I can control what I do, my personal ethics and everyone else ? Not a lot I can do. And funny thing ........... I can practice hundreds of hours, climb into a stand a miss a buck first day, and the fools picking their compounds up the week before opener can go out and walk up on a 180" buck with a 20 year old compound and kill it.

Leaves me with my mouth open ........ it really does
