RE: Just Curious
I put yes age matters, however It totally depends on the situation.
If a 12 year old is trying to give me hunting advice, I might smile and listen, but chances are its pretty much a passthrough. On the other hand if I post on this Forum that I got a new brand of arrows and I am having trouble with getting my feathers to stick to them and that same 12 year old posts, me and my Dad have been using so-n-soto clean those shafts with, such-n-such to glue them on, and been shooting them 3 months without any problems, Well then I'm all ears!

RE: Just Curious
In my case, I feel like recently my posts have been more informative compared to when I first started posting here at 14. Not really hunting wise because I will admit that I am a VERY novice hunter and still VERY much learning the sport. I have been hunting for roughly 4years on stand by myself. The only hunting related advice that I give is basic run of the mill advice. As far as how to set up and everything I'm all ears. Something I feel where my opinion is more worthy is with bows. I have really been putting in my time shooting different bows and other gear. In fact, the job I'm getting ready to start I got because of my knowledge of bows and talking archery with the owner. I'm ready to keep learning and learn a little more on how to tune, serve, and doing other things like that.

Age and post count don't mean anything to me. It's all about reputation. If someone builds a good reputation by posting quality posts...chances are I will read through their posts. But there are a few people (even older people) on this site that seem like they can't list a serious post to save their life....needless to say, I usually skip over their posts. There is a wealth of info on this site, I will never have time to read it all, so I definitly don't need to waste my time ready useless info.

Nope age has nothing to do with it. I learn something new everyday.
