Hey guys,
I have been bowhunting now for about 25 years, never had more than a passing interest in traditional. This summer my 11 year old son found an old shakespear recurve that had belonged to my dad in the garage at my brothers.....he really liked shooting it!
He has had a compound for a few years but never really wanted to shoot much. He was out shooting that recurve all the time.
Then the lower limb delaminated. He was pretty disappointed. He was moping around all the time wishing he could shoot his bow! I suggested he pick up his compound but he didn't want to do that.
So I ordered him up a sammik sage with 35# limbs for his birthday. Once he's done with football practice he's out shooting. Once in a while he even let's me shoot it!
He seems to be doing real well. He shoots good groups at close distances and smiles the whole time.
I'm shopping for one for myself now. I'm jealous the whole time he's shooting!
So here we are, I thought this would be a good place to get advice since there seems to be very few traditional arches around here.
