Getting back into it

Once me ego is up on me bow shooting, I'll do a comp for that too. That one expressly so I can have me ego smacked back into place by ppl who really know how how to use a bow. 😁😁😁

It came with forearm protector. But I have no dought I will at sometime.

Nope didn't watch that film. This is all on yours and petes head.
Really part of what site should do. Encourage ppl to give it a go. You never know where that will come from,whos going to put up what that just resonates with a person.

Good grief!
Spent last couple of days looking at archery videos. Figured it would be a good idea as when was younger doing it, we had bows we shot them. Wasn't really anything technical.
So you can well imagine my shock when started looking into it.
So got a couple of questions.
1: am I better off learning how to use a bare bow. The sight looks fancy and stuff but is it practical for hunting? It would seem to me from what I've seen on utube that the quickest shooters don't use sights. Those that are good without sights seem hell accurate anyway. Are sights worth it, if target shooting isn't my end goal.
2: what lb pull would be good for small game, rabbits etc. I'm under the impression that lighter bows are easier to shoot and a 60lb bow is probly overkill for blunt tip pest control.
Would this be correct and if so what would be a better lb draw?
3:should I be watching these Olympic shooters videos on bows. They have great tips and advice on maintaining, bow set up, shooting stance etc but are they the best for hunting technic.
Any advise appresiated
