Default can we take a vote here please?

There seems to be a disagreement in the topic" P&Y and 65% letoff.
there' s a few that say a 75-80% letoff bow is no difference than a xbow.
could we take a vote from each member to see how many beleive this to be true?
would everbody please vote YES if they agree with this, and NO if they don' t please? thank you.

no, i use a 75% letoff because i have bad shoulders ,if i didn' t have bad shoulders, i' d be able to hold at full draw alot longer!!thats the difference to me that and the fact that if they didn' t have higher letoffs i' d have to shoot a lighter bow heck its 55lbs now thats light enough!

NO!! I think that there is a big difference. You still have to be able to draw the bow while the deer is close without being detected. With the x-bow all you have to do is pull the trigger. I am not saying that x-bows are wrong, just that there is a difference in the 2.

No! There is a major difference between a xbow and a 80% let off bow. I dont even see the simularity. maybe since there both shoot arrows. Xbows are more like a gun. Not that xbows are bad, i have shot one before, there kind of fun. But they arent the same. I think P&Y should raise they letoff to 75 or 80%
