I am glad that I was able to help you in some small way. Truth be told I find that the more I learn then the less I actually know....if that makes any sense at all.

I feel much the same way. Working for someone else is one thing as many of the management responsibilities of running a shop tend to take the "wind out of my sails". That is also one of the reasons why I respect those individuals who can and do manage to run a good archery pro shop and yet are still capable of maintaining that "inner fire" for the sport itself.....not just doing it for the money or the prestige in carrying certain bow lines.

Good post Jerry.
