Full on Trad
« on: October 12, 2015, 07:41:00 AM »
Well yesterday was another exciting day in my life . My compound bow finally sold which means two things..  One I am fully on trad no training wheels to lean back on.  And two I was able to put some of my proceeds to finish ordering all the things I need to get my new cedar shafts from the footed shaft up and running.  
I have made the order and am very very excited about my first arrow being built.  Anyways I am here to stay!  Hunting licence to come shortly.

It's a blast!! I wish I had switched many years ago. This is my first 100% year of trad hunting, shooting and tinkering for a few now, and I'm having more fun than ever! I'm also getting to spend more time in the woods because, well I just haven't gotten close enough!

Best of luck and enjoy the journey!

I see your a cop as well, Stay Safe!

It can be therapeutic to sell off the safety net. Glad you're all in and good luck!!

I'm with you Timber. This is my third year but I too rue the time spent with the wheels. Didn't know any better. No turning back now. Now, if I could just find me some critters. I think they're all on extended vacation here in Jersey.

It's been 17 years for me now. I even substitute my trad bow for a rifle in "firearms" season.

It gets in your blood!!
