Wow, always have those who have to tear others down just for doing something positive. What a shame we can't just appreciate the effort and passion others put into their craft and congratulate them on their success.

You guys are making some fantastic videos, please keep up the great work!

I enjoyed watching the IBO Masters video.  These are people who are taking the same concept we use, which is a bow and arrow unassisted by any mechanical advantage or sights, and doing whatever they can to remove any errors which might be introduced by the equipment.  I appreciate this as much as the other end of the spectrum, where people shoot bows and arrows they made themselves out of one piece of wood.  I also appreciate everything in between, which includes all the rest of us and the limitless little variations we make to our bows and arrows.

People want to know who is the best shot, and as long as they are competing with others who are using similar equipment, it is a fair contest.  I don't care how they stand or aim if they can get more arrows in the middle than the next guy.  That is the only little disagreement I have with our sport: if someone wants to string walk a self bow, more power to him.  I personally don't like string walking, and probably will never do it for that simple reason, but if someone can outshoot me using similar equipment and string walking, I'm not going to hold it against him.
Well said.
While I personally have no desire to compete in that fashion the information given on shot sequence and the mental aspect of pressure shooting is undeniably relevant to bowhunting.  
Great video and thanks for sharing it.
