Precise Shot: Point Blank Shot, Precise Shot, BaB +11, Dex 19I suppose a 3rd lvl fighter could take Sharp Shooting instead of waiting until 11th level for Imp Precise Shot. But once he gets to 11th lvl and takes ImpPreShot, Sharp Shooting is totally worthless.Here's another problem. The Order of the Bow PrC in Complete Fighter gains the  Sharp Shooting feat at 6th level. Guess what character level you would have to be to be a 6th level Order of the Bow Initiate.... 11th !! (minimum) Which would qualify you for Improved Precise Shot.Just seems strange that one feat would be clearly BETTER in ALL WAYS to another feat. I can't think of any other two feats where one does everything that the other does PLUS more.*Edited to add the IPS prereq Dex 19</blockquote>
