Shoot expandables quartering away is fine - if it wasn't why the hell are they legal then?
Completely missed the point.

he's legally hunting right, who are you to tell him anything ?

Thunderheads NEVER flew on my bows like my field point , on any of them, and all of them were well tuned

maybe he shoots 85 pounds of pull and a 325 arrow to get 335 on that MQ32 ?

sounds like to me YOU'RE the one trying to tell him everything !
Prime example Killadoe!

Alright Big Duane, lets see, how can I say this to where you can understand? I never told him what to hunt with or how to hunt. I was explining to him the reason not to use a mechanicla as a band aid for a poorly tuned bow. If you read my very first post (the one at the top of the page) i clearly state I dont care what he uses. Also Big Duane, I have seen his bow and know first hand he does not shoot 85 pounds. I am not trying to "tell him everything" as you put it, I am just trying to explain a few things to him. But clearly you didnt read my first post or you would have known all of this already.

Also, Big Duane nobody said anything badabout shooting a deer quartering away, he thought thats what I was talking about when I said the arrow would hit the deer at an angle. I was in no way putting him down, I was just trying to explain stuff to him...

Never argue with a fool, they will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Just smile and walk away. At least one of you knows the other is ignorant.

I don't mind ignorant people, but refusing to learn is just stupid.
Ignorant people don't know that they're being taught something new...which usually does make them stupid.....on alot of different subjects!
