Title: The Best? My $0.02
Post by: NY Yankee on February 02, 2023, 04:31:15 PM
I wish everyone could realize, there is no good answer to "What is the best_____?"  It's all about what you like the best and what works the best for you. Really, the question is "What_____ do you like best and why?" and then you can decide what to try. Sometimes, you just have to find your own "best".

I think the only answer should be " I use xyz and I like it because...." What works for one may be crap for another.

YES SIR!!!

There is no X 'verses' Y.

Same as the glove vs tab.

And also, when you ask "Will this broadhead work out of my bow?" please tell us what animal you plan to hunt with said broadhead.

Bullchit Wannabe1.
Chocolate ice cream is best...

As for the original poster, yer right, but it creates a good discussion.

So from now on the "best" word will  not be permitted.

We will accept " your favorite "..

Excellent post James!

I share the same sentiment. I really appreciate the opinions of others when it comes to gear, methods, etc and what works for them and why. I have learned a lot over the years by listening and then trying for myself. Sometimes it works for me and sometimes it doesn't.

I value honest opinions from others. Conversely, I loath the "My way is the only right way" attitude. I've learned to tune that noise out.

Thanks again for a great post.   :campfire:

Reading on 3 different forums, I constantly see "What is the best____?". As if someone will say "XYZ is the best" and the OP can just run right out and buy XYZ and he will be all set. No testing involved, no effort involved, and no experience either.

I have found that I can really increase my FOC (fat out center) with Peanut Buster Parfaits.  Especially if I have 'em made with chocolate ice cream and peanut butter sauce...

But speaking purely traditionally and instinctively, black licorice ice cream is definitely superior to all others.

You're getting off easy. I'd gain ten if I even thought about comparing ice cream flavors.

Hell with the "Best"  Thats an abstract notion. What you want is to be the "GOAT" with the most exceptional gear. ;)

Anyone that is man enough to eat licorice ice cream can definitely hunt with me any time.

I agree with the feeling that we should try things out, make up our minds based on what works best for the individual, etc. I only see one problem with that. If we take such a logical approach, what will we have left to argue about around the campfire? Besides, everybody knows the mint chocolate ice cream is best as are the thin mint GS cookies. Never tried the licorice ice cream but love the licorice cookies. If you want to know what is best on most any topic, just ask me. After all, I'm sure of all my facts - Hell I just made them up a little while ago.

Ok, ice cream should be enjoyed in its purest form "vanilla" same as whiskey, only flavored with ice. Dilute nothing.
