Great!  I know you will love it.  This year I finally went totally Trad and am so relieved having done it.  I am seriously thinking about backing over my compounds.  Good luck to you.

Thanks for all that responded.  I have a a Roy Hall Longbow.  I shot yesterday with POWDUCK and bought a bow from him today.  I dont know that I will ever use my compound again.

I just started shooting trad this year. Last year I spent a heap of money on my compound and now I want to sell it.... Trad is just so much fun and the people on this site are awesome!

I have been looking into traditional archery for a couple of years and just happened on this site. I agree the site is great.  I have learned alot by reading the posts from you guys.    I  can't wait until I feel comfortable enough with my longbow to try and hunt with it.
