    Forgiveness means the bow still hits the middle when the shot feels marginal. Meaning you’ve spent the time to get the bow to work for you. Everything works when we aren’t nervous. A 6” brace height bow can shoot just as forgiving as a 7” if you make it so. It’s particular to the archer and how much time you’ve spend with your equipment.

      @@user-vt7sp6pp4p that’s right! At the end of the day all of this comes down to the person behind the bow

    Forgiveness means my bow doesn’t hold it against me when rifle season comes in.

    I want that bow, really considering it. For some reason, I've made it a requirement that whatever bow I get, has to have a good stand like the new Hoyts offer. I've seen one clip I now cant' find, of a Mach 30 using the same looking stand. Do you know anything about the options PSE has? I really can't find any. Thanks for another awesome video!

      @@JoshAndersonHunting honestly I’m not sure about this area, I haven’t used a bow stand for many years - not my area of expertise. Sorry!

    Personally i do not believe in the concept of "forgiveness".
    Inconsistencies in form do not occur during the shot. Humans aren't fast enough to make any changes to affect the shot between when the string is released and the arrow disconnects from it. All errors occur in the setup prior to the shot.
    The best ways to ensure an archer is accurate and consistent even when their release is not perfectly consistent, in my opinion, involves three other "F" words: Fit, Familiarity and Form.
    Fit: correct draw length, comfortable draw and holding weight, properly balanced, peep sight correct height, sight properly calibrated, release aid set up to function according to the archer's preferred method of shot execution. There should be nothing keeping the archer from devoting 100% of his/her mental attention to maintaining eye/pin/target alignment while floating and executing the shot. TLDR, don't fight against your own setup.
    Familiarity: the archer knows his/her equipment and has become familiar with its operation, how it feels to draw, how it sounds and reacts when loosing arrows, and how the release works. Different bows and release aids feel different, and switching between different pieces of equipment required a period of refamiliarization
    Form: the archer has cultivated his/her form so the bow, which is a simple machine, is being fed the same input arrow after arrow.
    If those three "F"'s are locked down through practice and repetition, the archer won't have to use another particular "F" word because he'll be flubbing far fewer shots.

    Can you comment on the length of your mule stabilizer and it being in the lower stabilizer mount? Seems like it would be way up your arm when you carry it

      @@pennyontrack it is quite high on my arm, but the higher up the more weight it appears to take off while you’re carrying it. The thing with this bow is that it is so light that it’s not a pain to carry either way
