Congratulations!

I feel the same way about my compound bow. I started shooting traditional two years ago and I haven’t taken the compound out of its case since.

Hmm, it's after 8 in the morning and still no pics or story?  Oh well, I suppose I may have been inclined to celebrate and maybe sleep in a little.   :biglaugh:
