OK here goes. Like you Iam shall we say advanced in age. I also shot older bows with fingers. Thought it was the best thing since sliced bread. Then one of the youngin's let me use his 10 year old compound with a 65% let off and a string loop and release. Man what a difference all that has made. Since then Iam on my second bow with all the latest and greatest. Currently shooting a Matthews Drenalin.
Since upgrading my shoot has improved 100%. Now understand I do not claim to be a great shot but man its awesome to shoot 2" groups and 20 yds and even 4" groups at 40 yds. I actually shoot my bow better than a handgun. For me I would never go back to fingers. Its like going from Iron Sites to a Scope.
Thats not to say your wrong with finger shooting and if that what you want go for it. Bowhunting is hard enough and I need every edge I can get.
