Hello from the newbie
« on: April 28, 2008, 10:28:00 PM »
Hey, folks! I'm relatively new to traditional archery, but I'm already in love with it. The story goes that I got back into archery this week after about 12 years. I got some arrows for my compound bow last week, hoping to have a good time. I didn't, however. For some reason, it didn't feel right, so I got my bamboo longbow out, started shooting it, and loved it. It just feels right to shoot with stick and string, no gizmos attached. I hope to learn a lot from the members here.
