Nip it in the bud here. I'm running out of popcorn and hair reading all the elk droppings on the other Trad sites.    :deadhorse:

O.K. my curiosity is up. What is this about, what happened? What is "insurgents of the mainstream media mentality"? I'm genuinely in the dark, P.M. me if you like.  Jim

I'm clueless as well.  But I prefer to remain that way I think.  Doesn't seem like this has anything to do with trad archery.

My understanding of what's going here has its roots  in an undermining sharing (often times pushing) of misinformation concerning trad archery basic truths.  We, as a group seem to be drifting away from the simple knowledge learned over decades by trial and error of archery greats.  

Perhaps Terry or Rob can elaborate....

If this is about politics (and I suspect it is) it just doesn't belong here.

We are rapidly approaching a time where isolationism puts people in a liable position of getting overrun.  Things that happen in the world directly affects us all, it is important to be truthfully informed so we know when to duck and when to stand up and fight back.

Most of the misunderstanding seems to be that most of us reading this topic don't have any idea what is being referenced or discussed.   :confused:

Susan, etal... actually it's a analogy using current mainstream  media  jargon to bring to light how, over time, misinformation about bow hunting parameters is permeating Tradgang forums (how sharp is a sharp broadhead....and
making statements about bow/arrow effeciency that are not supported by sound data and decades of experience . ("Whew"...that was a mouthful!)   :saywhat:  

Clear as mudd?

I know I am a bit dense, but what the hell fake news are you guys talking about? I see lots of stuff here that I don't believe or understand, but I don't know how to tell if a writer is merely misinformed or just trying to start something. If he is misinformed, we should try to illustrate a more logical approach to a situation. I just am not sure, in most cases, if a statement is deliberately false. Sorry, but a number of comments about removed post have left me bewildered. I guess my ignorance truly is bliss. Quite honestly, I wish the offending posts would be identified.

I have been contacted by a few of the Old Guards that are concerned about this as well.  These comments came to me unsolicited but I was glad to see it so I wasn't thinking I was the only one noticing is ever increasing  issue.

The truth in bowhunting is getting watered down due to miss representation being spread about through social media.

Again it's just not me and not only the old guards that contacted me but others as well.  It seems to be a growing concern.

Sam it's pattern of spreading misinformation by a few to the masses....some in ignorance and some by design.  Repeating things that they heard "somewhere from somebody" without understanding there is no evidence whatsoever to support what they say..

Here's a recent  one, I was asked by our local state congressman, why I objected so strongly to the legalization of crossbows, because as he put it, "The proof is out there that hunting deer the old way with a bow arrow and arrow, hunters are wounding and losing many more deer than they actually take home."  It is not a very long guess to who fed him that information. There are high profits in disinformation.

What kind of misinformation is being spread? Is it being spread by bowhunters, or non-hunters?

There was jargon imbedded in your post, i.e.,  "mainstream media" which lead me to believe that was the point. Sorry if I misunderstood but the post isn't clear about what you mean.  If we are talking about misinformation and the purposeful spreading of falsehoods about our sport, then I am always with you. The great things about FACTS is that they are true whether you believe them or not.
