Arthur, that's more or lesswhat I was aying but apparently Medic is thin skinned and thick headed. Says he doesn't need my education. That's fine, but then one who doesn't want to learn is well.....youy know what I mean. I did mention that one should be flexible in this sport if he wants to learn.
And for the record, I'm not against speed. I'm totally for it. I've been chasing that mythical 300fps for 1 years and finally got a bow that will do it. Albeit a 3D setup, but at 27" draw and 53# that is smoking.
Flexibility young man. The sport changes every year. Gotta keep up. But don't throw out the past. Never know when you'll need some of that info.
No, I am not thin skinned at all. Just tired of the superior attitudes out there. I have never said we can not learn from each other. I just don't need to be berated becasue I shoot a fast bow. And I am sick of the attitude that fast is inaccurate. All I have ever said on that issue is that it is the shooter behind the bow that makes it accurate.
I have never said anything about older shooters. I shoot with a 62yo and a 72yo regulary. I learn much about archery history from them and want education from such men. The 62 yo outshoots me every day. He has been shooting for years and I have not. So I learn much from them about the art of archery. I do not need to learn from those that only accept those who believe like they do and is intolerant of those who do not.
I signed up to this forum to learn from those with experience and have found out that this is a forum to berate those that do not agree with you. So I guess I did learn something from this site.
