Originally posted by Guru: Also, There's no doubt in my mind that if I set my mind to it, they wouldn't slow down my "killin'" one bit...But it would take a total transformation in how I shoot a bow because of how I grip a bow. Guess I'm not willing to do that though. And I don't want to have 2 different "styles" of shooting, because for me, I don't feel I can be the best I can be shooting 2 diff. ways(grips, locked/un-locked elbow,etc...)I'm of the "fear the man with one bow" metality...Now I know that in my quest for a longbow, I'll be looking for one with a more 'curve style grip.
Originally posted by Ben Kleinig: QuoteOriginally posted by Guru:I'm of the "fear the man with one bow" metality... You raise an interesting thought. In Tolstoy's "War and Peace" he states that no two people view truth in the same way. What I'm getting at is that when I first started bowhunting (not that long ago compared to many here), I heard the saying of "Fear the man with one bow", and it made perfect sense to me. And then later on, sometime after joining Trad Gang, I read some of Terry's wisdom, which I can't quote word-for-word, which went something along the lines of getting a few basic form or technique principles down-pat, and no bow should be out of the question. So, to my way of thinking, these are two fairly opposite opinions, and yet for different people, one will be absolutely correct, and the other will be absolutely wrong. And there may be some spectrum in between the two.If we can combine fun with responsibility to the game we pursue, then it's all good, no matter what personal preferences are. [/b]
I guess I'm just always afraid if I start shooting a bunch of bows, I won't be as good as I can with any one of them [dunno]
