I appreciate this has been covered before (http://www.archery-interchange.net/...cceptance-grand-national-archery-society.html), but there are very few horsebowmen at my club, and i think i'm the only one that "competes" (lol) with one, so i don't really know where i stand.
Obviously thanks to the powers that be, up there in that great big ivory tower with GNAS written on it, as a horsebowman, i'm considered to be shooting barebow, and as such i'm strugglin to acheive third class (another near miss today). However if you check the tables, but assume my scores are generated with a longbow, i'm nocking on the door to 2nd class.
So my question is, am i crap?! Sorry to be blunt, but like i said, i've not got much to compare it with. I have been keeping an eye on fleebay for a longbow, but at the prices they're going at i may as well get a new one. Is it even worth making the switch, or are horsebows that much "better" that i'd notice the drop performance?
Anyways, another comp next weekend (and if no one else shows up with a barbow, another medal, lol) so i'll muddle on for now, and keep trying, i'm just unsure of where to go from here.
Thanks for listening to my rant! lol
