Howdy Todd.  Pull up a chair to the campfire.


Great bunch of folks here and the founders of the sight are from your home state.

Sounds like you've been in the game long enough to offer some good advice.  Got any pic's of the bow's you've built?
Dave


I've come to believe that the keys to shooting well for me are good form, trusting the bow to do all the work, and having the confidence in the bow and myself to remain motionless and relaxed at release until the arrow hits the mark.

Woo-Hawww! Got us another one!  :bigsmyl:  

Seriously, welcome. Hope you have fun here. I think sometimes I have too much fun!

Welcome Todd. I would like to see some of your bows. Functional is pretty. I live up the road from you just past the Ga. line. There are several trad shooters not far from you.
You should try to make one of the North Georia Traditional Archers shoots near Gainsville. If you go to the Trad Events section, you can find directions. Great bunch of guys and gals there. I hope to make a couple of their shoots this year.
