    Thoughts? tree launcher shoots line up to 250 feets

    I was hoping for an explanation as to how his apparatus was "more accurate" than the APTA, but I guess he was too busy to type out the essay in reply.....

I don't pump it up until I'm ready to shoot it. As to accuracy, I have found the weight of the bag used, as well as how well it...
