We ALL do this EACH AND EVERY TIME we seek advice from someone. When I need to know how a concrete mix design performs in marginal placement temps.....I go to the guys in my indstry that have experience with the subject matter at hand. I don't poll the other managers I work with andtake a "just use 4,000 and let 'er rip".

If everyone were honest with themselves.....they'd see that this is what EVERYONE seeking advice or technical insight does.
Do I respect everyone's OPINION? YES! Why wouldn't I?
WHY is this hard to understand? I NEVER claimed to be among the elite in bowhunting. Never. I'd be a FOOL to not seek out their expertise, though. Wouldn't I?

I'm asking EVERYONE.

Here's some words ......RIGHT out of YOUR mouth, Atlas.
Who's fooling who, here. I posted this thread. I asked you to not respond if you had nothing informative to add.....and YOU simply want to start arguments. I'v ebeen saying this for a LONG time, now.
Heed your OWN words, pup.

I have no problems ignoring you............yet you still follow me around like a lost puppy.

That is the most rediculous thing I have ever read...........I ask open questions here all the time.........and I read each and every reply and lend no greater value to one over another based on what I think of that persons hunting abilities................that is just stupid.

Let the record show that my veins aren't popping out of my forehead.
I don't have carpal tunnel from retrieving quotes so quickly.
And....I can't even post on my OWN thread without being harrassed.
Here ya go, "champ"....the rest of this one is yours, too. Have fun.

You're horrible at playing the victim..........(to people who know you better
)When you post a thread that is insulting to many members here and get called on it.............it's not being harrassed. If you only care what certain people say then don't ask everyone...........ask them. It's rude and a big waste of time.

Here's what I said to PT in another thread:
If you have a poll that asks 100 baseball players.....this question:
What's the hardest thing about hitting a slider?
Their choices are:
No. 1 - Picking up the rotation
No. 2 - Keeping your weight back
Now...you get the results.....and the results say 77 to 23 that No. 1- Picking up the rotation .....is the hardest thing about hitting a slider. You'd think you had your answer now, wouldn't you???
But the facts are......74 of your "baseball players" were little leaguers.....and 28 of them were pitchers.
Now.....you realize you ONLY had 9 college and Professional players in your control group.....and 3 of them were pitchers.
WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED?
Nothing.
If I'd wanted to PM everyone "I thought had pertinent information for my poll.....you'd have ridiculed me for singling out some members and for omitting others. I couldn't win, either way. But why do YOU care, Atlas? Why not let people respond if they want to....and not respond if they didn't want to. I don't KNOW everyone here.....and that's why I asked EVERYONE.
There's NO WAY you don't call me out, either way.....and everyone knows that. I'm willing to let everyone make their own decisions and take WHATEVER they want to from ANY poll.
Why did you respond if you thought it was baseless? We both know the real answer to that question, don't we

To me this thiking is flawed. When I am seeking advice from people I want expert opinions. That doesn't mean I don't respect everyone else's opinion, but I will put more stock in someone that is experienced rather than a new person. For example, I would have more emphasis on something that Davidmil or Len had to say rather than some of our young teenage members. That not a knock on the young guys, but Len and David have over 200 deer between them easily. To me that makes their opinion a little more valuable.
