quality of this site
I been on this site for several years now and see a lack of interesting topics. It seems for a site that is called 3D, I do not fine many topics on what is the best 3D set up, bow, scope, release and or arrow. Or what the best way to learn how to judge distance on a 3D course. I keep hoping some one just would post how to use a back release and what the best one to use so you do not get your nose broken....
now when I go over to archery talk in just a few hours there seem to be 25 pages of new discussion and or sales of items...
what your suggestions for increasing the quality of this site ????

A little known fact !
I get tired of the same repeated stuff , that's why I'm found at the offtopic section more !
I do buy alot of archery stuff and I'm back to shooting again !
I have found that the owner of this site is one smart archer , wish he'd chine in more , but he must be busy and that's fine !
I've done and made alot of archer mistakes and am not all that serious about being " the worlds greatest archer anymore " !
I'm at peace being a bowhunter first !

Personally from what I've seen on other sites, the bow and the equipment that the person has on it is the best. If the person changes their bow or equipment then the new stuff is the best. The way this site is, is the reason I like it. If a person has a question then they get answers and good suggestions. There is none of the chest thumping keyboard hero chit that happens on some of those other sites.
IMHO 3dShoots beats the other sites hands down

The answer is to start quality threads....You even said in your post that you were hoping or waiting for someone to start a thread about BT and releases....
Well that makes about as much sense as shooting an arrow straight up in the air. Why on earth would you be waiting for someone else to do it? Start one your self asking that question if you have it. I'm sure not going to start one since I know how to shoot a hinge and don't need help with it. There is no magic release that will not make you punch yourself. If you hit yourself or it's going off fast/early....you either aren't drawing correctly (drawing at your face) or your release is set to hot.
If you want more quality threads....ya just have to start them.

I have noticed his start date and his 200 or so post in that time and seems that if one was really wanting to further this agenda they would take a more active approach to it instead of criticizing a group of happy folks enjoying this site
