My bowmaker just came back from a bow competition with an international panel of judges. What I cannot believe is this: Not a single bow is actually played by anyone. The whole thing is a beauty contest. Playability accounts for nothing.

That does seem kind of weird, doesn't it?

Having said that, I'm a proud owner of a Reid Hudson bow that won at one of those competitions. :) Luckily, mine feels and plays really well too.
