I know the place. I used to hunt in Pulaski every year for about 6 years. Awesome hunting in the mountains.

Your story sounds very familiar. I had that nice Matthews bow. Got it dialed in like a rifle. Never missed its mark. And it was just sitting in the case. For me I had a sort of awakening as you speak of when I realized that bow had taken the "earned skill" out of archery with all the high tech stuff. The bow did the work. I sold it. Never looked back. Took a few months to get consistant,and after a few years to get very accurate most of the time. If this bug bites you good.....You will be into this for a long,long,time. I hope it does.

Tim,
 If you're from Salem STAR is in your backyard, try not to miss it. Sherwood Archers-quite a few stick shooter there and a grand place to shoot. Welcome from the mid Valley.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

Cool--welcome to the addiction!

A couple of suggestions, if I may.  

First, the Sage is a great bow.  It does need a string upgrade though--the one that comes with it isn't so great.  It does make a difference.

Second (maybe this should be first), get a copy of "Masters of the Barebow, Volume III".  Worth it's weight in gold.  Even better, if you hear of a Rod Jenkins clinic in your area, take it.  You won't be sorry.

Good luck!

Chad
