Why do you think, other than we are all entitled to our own oppinion, do we as people..... for example..


The Rage broadhead. DISCLAIMER: this is not a Rage thread!! You have the people on this side who say it's junk, it opens in flight, it's not durable. while on the other side you have the group saying it awesome, its flies like a field tip, it would bring down a B-52, why aint the military caught on to these yet?

Scent-Lok. Apply same disclaimer as above some people say while wearing this stuff you can pick a deers nose, while others say its an expensive gimmick.

I know each individual has there own experience with a given product, but why so scattered, is there one single product out there everybody agrees is great?

Everyone likes what they use, I find it a little bit funny when people give opinions on things they haven't tried.

is there one single product out there everybody agrees is great?
I highly doubt it. Some people can pick out (what they think to be) flaws in anything.

My gambrel is a workhorse. I think we can all agree on that.

It seems it's not good enough to talk UP a product you endorse (in those threads).....so....I see a lot of people in threads denouncing a product they don't use OR have any experience with.

Those are the ones I don't understand.

I think a lot of it has to do with the way different people use these products. Correctly versus incorrectly.....Another. It's what you have confidence in, It has worked for you and proven itself, or they heard a buddy of a buddy tell them it didn't work....so it was hear say and not experience

different strokes for different folks - I try not to get involved in those types of threads because if you look at it nothing is really accomplished

You like your steak well done I like mine rare - we can piss moan about which is better all day long - but chances are you wouldn't try it rare but still say it sucks cause it is not what you like - pointless in the end

X2 My thoughts exactly...I think some people just like to argue and belittle others products for no other reason than to here themselves talk I guess.

It's really quite simple. Opinion cannot be proven right or wrong. Insecurity forces us to defend our opinion.

Some say Ford is better, others say Chevy. I believe people have had both good and bad experiences with both of those products, but you must determine what you want. I listen to these reviews some sway me more than others. However, I do my research buy the products I want and if they are crap I don't buy them again. If the product was good I buy it again, that simple.
