Title: new archer, new bow
Post by: dragon slayer on May 16, 2008, 08:09:00 PM
Hi all.
new archer to trad gang, shoot mainly compound in competition.
but have a love of trad, (not very good mind you).
got my new trad bow from arnold at v archery, and i think im in love, its not just a bow its a work of art, when i hold it i can almost feel its soul.. ok maybe thats a bit muc, but im sure you get what i mean.
looking forward to learning how to shoot these bows and this style of archery with competency and consistency.
anyway check out the pics of my new love and my first practice session.

you may be right,
think there can be a happy medium though.
that being said have already placed an order for a second trad bow.

telling ya this is such a nice bow.
only problem is the guy who makes em only does a couple a year.
so am gonna have to wait for months before my next one arrives.
worth waiting for me thinks..
