I don't get too hung up on the definition of "trad", but I do try to remember that the context of TradGang is not just traditional archery, but specifically TRADITIONAL BOWHUNTING.  

Sometimes I lose sight of that myself, though, since I like shooting at targets so much!

To me it's no letoff and no sights and shooting fingers and the fingers isn't a real deal breaker either. My wife recently had to start using a mechanical release due to age and repetitive motion work injuries with her wrist, I'm so grateful we figured out a way for her to keep shooting but she would have to shoot in the women's compound division to compete in my club's shoots. It hasn't been an advantage for her yet though but I could see it being so with the right utilization! When you get to the big high level origination shoots which can support lots of different divisions you can make all sorts of hoops to jump through to level the playing field. At the shoots in my area you see virtually no Olympic setups, most everybody shoots wood riser bolt down limbed bows, not even very many ILF wood or otherwise!

As the old saying goes. "It ain't the bow, it's the monkey pulling the string that counts!".
