So... I'm just trying to shoot straight and kill an animal cleanly. Whatever it takes to get that done. Aluminum, carbon or wood is fine by me.
How many people shouldn't even take a bow without sights into the woods this fall because they are not proficient enough to do so? I think the focus should be on clean killing and shooting targets accurately.
I do get the philosopher thing and that is how I took the article. Also, as said in the article, heavy wood arrows do quiet a bow. I have been thinking hard about that.... There were some good points to the article.
