Wasn't calling you out per se, you seem pretty well respected on here. It's also just my personal opinion, that's all. Not saying your doing in on purpose either, but it can look that way and if you are, well that's unsportsmanlike in my book. The rest of it was just me going off a rant, babble if you will. Oh and nobody made me God anymore than they did you, just my opinion, that's all. I shoot lots of tournaments cause they are fun to shoot and I lose at most of them, but I have never blamed anyone but myself for lack of scouting or shooting or both, just in case anyone was thinking about that.

I don't know about respected.I think most are just numb from listening to my crap and the shock value wore off so they take it with a grain of salt and roll eyes and go on about their business lol.Sorry about flipping out.
 
If anyones wondering why we get a bad rap, on like youtube and such, just read this thread. Look like a Buncha wannabe bass PROs with a pocket full of lead sinkers.

I can see where you get that! Dont sound like there is much respect or sportsmanship between everyone is there!

Im fairly new to serious bowfishing, and was UTTERLY disappointed when I searched the "orginizations", almost the only thing I found was "tournaments", very little in the way of conservation, or betterment of public image(which is 190% more important than anything else as the NON hunters are the ones who vote away our rights, when we just show them this crap and bloody killing).
Show them we are a bunch of idiot ******** out for glory and they will consider us so.

Our actions on the water and in public are in direct relations to our IMAGE to others. If our IMAGE is soiled then so will our future be.....

i dont fish fare and ill throw down if i ever catch anyone in my buff hole the night before a tourney trey jones was knockin on the back door one night and i thought i was gonna have to knock some heads =)
 
I don't think we need to be adding lead or anything, but why can't we strive to be as big as BASS or bassmasters, why do they have to get all the money and sponsors and donations. Other than tax money and locally generated money what do they do for the lakes they fish?
 
Istickem, if your coming to internet forums to find out about organizations, it's the wrong place. That's like telling me your looking at 2coolfishing for information on CCA or TexasFishingForum for info on Bass Federation Nation. If you want info on organizations and what they are doing, go to THEIR websites. Read THEIR newsletters. Forums are just gossiping places. As a side note, at this point Tournaments are the way to gain participation and members in the organization. It's the only places were like minded people are gathering at this point.
