Eventhough I have taken deer with my bow every year for the last 20 years and I start to get the big head and think I know all about deer and deer hunting I get a big slice of humble pie courtesy of a deer no less that sets me straight.So I don't pound my chest when I kill a deer and act like I know it all and try to tell someone else how to do it or my way is the only way,ect.I don't have that my bow is the best mentallity,I'm smart enough to know that most hunting equipement like serious bowhunters are all pretty good at what they do.

You also don't want the guy who's zebco 202 backlashed on him in 1971.......telling you to forego spinning reels, because they're junk
Yep. There are some guys who are just as mixed up on what little they know about bowhunting and gear as that guy is about fishin' reels - seeing as how a Zebco 202 is a spincast reel and not a spinning reel. [8D]
I was gonna say that, but didnt. and besides how do you get a spincast to backlash?????

Maybe, and this is pure speculation,
That true bowhunters hold themselves at a higher level of excellence in hunting... true hunting.... than many "hunters" cannot relate to.
Bowhunting used to be the cream of the crop.
The guys who didn't deal in Yards, but feet
The guys who actually hunted deer like our founding fathers did...
The guys that knew they'd kill a deer worthy of bragging, whether it was a spike or a 14 point, it was your deer.
Not some punk, who embraces the technology of hunting, and acts like a bowhunter, but really doesn't have a clue as to the true nature of a hunt.
I'm a jerk....
And its because I think I'm the best... I hunt with a really piss poor attitude, and I perform at a level that ensures that not only wil I kill a deer, I'll do it in a way that makes other men wish they could accomplish.
I am the cream of the crop...
I am a god darn bowhunter

in my opionion, a bowhunter or a hunter is the same, we all hunt, just because some one has more experience then you or another person dosnt mean they are better, just like a sin is a sin, murdering and lying are both sins, in gods eyes neither one of them are worse then the other, same thing with hunting, know one is better then another person everyone is equal, you might know more but that still dosnt give anyone the right to think they are better then some one else.
Well, in my world, there is a huge difference between myself and a guy who uses a rifle to shoot a deer at 250 yards and call it hunting, and I'm not too religious, nor do I respect religious people.
