Many of us have been forced to shoot compounds in order to keep shooting at all. For me, it was very exciting to find out that I could shoot trad again. Of course it was and is lighter bows now but that is just fine. I do understand about losing things to thieves, lost some awesome things to them. I sure do hope that you are able to figure out what you can shoot and regain the love. Sure is so much simpler and cleaner. Plus the beauty of the bow is long lasting when taken care of.
