Field Staff hurting or helping?

Can we have a civilized conversation without bringing up "he who must not be named?"

 

Will there be stickers?

 

Forgot about the sticker part, can't do it.

 

Field Staffers are not something I pay any attention to so I cannot give a qualified opinion regarding their value to a brand. I don't think marketing influences me quite as much as the average person. I do a lot of my own research before buying anything. If I want an opinion on an item I will ask advice from people I know and trust.

 

There's only so much room on deez nuts. Sorry, bro.

 

Speaking of nuts, what does Duke think about your new bromance with Matt?

 

Double standards?

We have an open relationship so it's cool.

You can't pay me enough to use a product if in my heart I want to try another but can't because of a signed contract.

For me ? It's take this job and shove it. I've been offered a lot of field gigs. They hamper you so much that you end up glossing over some truths. I rather have my integrity by having freedom to express my true opinion on products. I'll make my money @ work and buy what I want. If I feel it's not worth the money, I won't buy or I'll speak up.

Considering most of us on here aren't the average weekend warrior, I imagine it helps quite a bit for the masses. Your average bowhunter (or hunter in general) may not have the time or desire to research or try out products. We may be the 1%, but most of the marketing is targeting the other 99%.

 

Full disclosure... Sota sent me a field staff application written in purple and yellow crayon with what appeared to be a doodle of a helmet with horns?

 

I like being a part of the 1%.

This is one of the most entertaining threads I've seen! It's like I can see all of you sitting around a hunt cabin with a fire roaring behind us as we deal cards... Sota in a dark corner blurting out "Sota-isms" while doing a jigsaw puzzle! I love it

 

But what beer are drinking?

Is "Old Milwaukee" still brewing?

 

It is! But I'm drinking Pabst which isn't far off!

That was not crayon, I gave myself a paint enema to make that for you.

 

I'm still and will forever be of the opinion, whenever a "staffer" is speaking on a product he is being paid to sponsor, take that opinion with a grain of salt. It's a bought and paid for opinion. These opinions are what gives "staff whore" credence.

I prefer the opinions of my friends if I'm wanting info on a product.

That's one part. Additional part is, our sport changes. There are new developments monthly. Some of those are awesome. I want to be able to use them !

I'm shooting among a few bows mainly a Hoyt. Someone introduces a new bow, I want to be able to use it. For instance, I've been waiting for the Mathews No Cam to push some sustainable speeds comparable to my Hoyt , hunting ready. When it does, and no it hasn't yet, according to out couple speed guns, I'm buying one. I want that flexibility.

You talk to a fan boy or a staffer and they will argue their No Cam shoots 350 fps. My answer is, what other bow did you shoot it against ?

Crickets.

That's not a real life reality answer. It's a biased one.

Point is, staffers and fan boys give biased opinions. Again? Grain of salt.

He's doing his paid for "job". Don't hate. Learn to be BETTER, which I'm sure you are. Dude has major $$$$$ sponsors. It is what it is.
