I know I've had quite a few people ask me about my Trad Gang T shirt the past few months at shoots in FL, GA, and PA. I would like to think that had something to do with it .......... but I doubt it. LOL!!!  :biglaugh:

I think the site promotes itself. I know at least for me, I have gained a ton of knowledge and made some good friends through Trad Gang. It seems that Traditional Bowhunting is growing, and hunters are seeking as much information as possible.

I agree with Matt.  Tradgang offers a ton of information and comradery..  I also think there is a big uptick in interest in traditional equipment.  Lots of great podcasts from the stick bow chronicles, the PUSH etc are really getting a lot of traction on social media.  Great times!

There are now multiple podcasts that cater to the traditional crowd and a few high profile people who have switched to traditional equipment. There is a lot more buzz out there now about hunting with traditional equipment. I think it is natural for them to search for information about how to get started with traditional gear and seek like minded people. It's growing at a fast rate.

That’s good news. I see many posts on FB from new to archery folks needing help. Not just USA many countries around the world. I try and steer them to TradGang when appropriate. I feel there are so many more experienced people here to help than may be on FB.

I think a lot regular guys like myself mention the Gang to people we meet. When they take a look for themselves, they see right off what a congenial and knowledgeable group of bowhunters hang out here. Plus, I believe that since the economy has improved, a lot of people now have the money to get into trad.

This could just be me but I find Trad Gang a lot easier to navigate than other sites. I've also found that there is a lot less negative interaction with other members. I only wish I would have joined Trad Gang sooner, I was on 2 other forms years ago for a short time and it just gave me a bad taste for archery forms.

Worthwhile, intuitive posts and valued shared information, in themselves, serve as a prominent recruiting factor

I think trad shooting and trad hunting as well, are on the upswing. As was mentioned, lots of social media exposure including You Tube and podcasts, movies that have a trad archery theme or sub-theme, and yes...even the wild antics of Lars Andersen.  :archer2:
