Well, "to err is human." My sole aim, goal, purpose, and motivation in life is to have the bottoms of the hooks perfectly parallel to the ground. I may* have failed and, for that, I am profoundly embarrassed.
*The bar angle may be distorted by my always semi-incompetent photography. Or perhaps not, and perhaps just a wee bit of downward angle is what I really like. Who knows what one really likes? At any rate, that bar is supremely comfortable, and I've been thinking that hooks on the very same bar on the geometrically cloned 2020 Matthews needs to be rotated down a wee bit.
