Do you have any experience with a professional athlete in any meaningful direct way?
It's normally described as a professional is to a good amateur as a good amateur is to a 5 year old toddler.
- lukan 1y agoI am (or was) a pretty good athlete myself and I still regular shoot with bows (and toy arrows) at people. And I have trained with better athletes. So I value my own opinion here.
- the_sleaze_ 1y agoI've trained with professional fighters in the UFC, and played for as a warmup alternate for my city's MLS team. I've also played extensively with professional soccer players in invitation only pickup games. The difference is truly profound. While I understand you may value your experience you might allow for some lack of direct personal experience.
- lukan 1y agoI am not sure what exactly is your point here? Is there any technical point that I made that makes you think I lack insight into the topic? Then please share.
- the_sleaze_ 1y ago> Maybe go to a LARP or reanectment event and participate (arrows with rubber endings) to compare if there are differences with your close range snowball fight. This one - which was simple enough to find lukan. [You can just click context near the timestamp above you comment to see the comments made before]
- lukan 1y agoYes? That was debated in this thread. Don't you think it is a good idea for someone who is talking about arrow fights, but has by his own words only experience in snowball fights, to actually try out a arrow fight to better know what he is talking about?
