I have been an archer my entire life, I have been harassing animals with flying sticks since I was 5 years old. The 50's and 60's had numerous gadgets just garranteed to be the best. A sport can only be a sport if there is limitations built in to keep it a sport. I watched some string walkers at an area range. It reminded be of kids playing with Leggos, a lot of fussing with the gadgets, swapping limbs, moving this moving that, changing points on arrows. The CP shooters were a wide range of things, one fellow drew his bow in the morning then sometime that afternoon he pushed the button and let go of the string, then declared that something must have bumped his bowsight. I have seen this clinging to crutches before, but it seems to be a brain washing entrancement this time around. If we look across the spectrum of society, 'traditional' no longer seems very traditioanl.

I get it....it really depends on where your head is...AND your thoughts usually change as you gain life experience.
I think it starts out by wanting to do the best we can weather it's hunting or just some sort of target shooting. BUT, for every want there is a product "guaranteed " to help us reach the goal. So for many especially with deeper pockets down the rabbit hole they go. How far depends on the person. How bad they want to win or kill a critter with their skill set is another factor. Took me many years to realize I wasn't going to get any better no matter what new gizmos I had.
